A flaw in a crucial piece of software that connects users to these servers appears to have been the source of the problem.

Skype engineers said the flaw existed in every copy of the Skype software that had been downloaded since the service’s start in 2003.

What’s more, while they can pinpoint the problem in the software, they don’t know why its affected the network in the way that it has, nor can they necessarily prevent (therefore) that it will happen in the future.
