But to inform the more ignorant this problem has nothing to do with Skype other than the email pretends to be a Skype upgrade to the latest version. There is no need to remove Skype from your system even if you have installed the trojan. The two are not associated.
The email could have easily had said it was an upgrade to WinAMP or Media Monkey.
Skype works as designed and does not contain any trojans.
