Skype not remembering my language preferences

billyMass - October 23, 2009 - 4:23pm

I just downloaded skype portable.
for some reason the language came up in hebrew, so after logged in I changed the Language in the "Tools" panel and it changed to english ... so far so good.

I closed skype and re-opened it and it was hebrew again.
wtf ?!

how can I permanently change to english ?
