How do I get Skype to stop asking me to update my browser (or install IE)?
Every time I start Skype, it asks me to update my browser and it helpfully offers me a link to download IE. Why does this happen and what can I do to stop it?

Yes, there has been a Skype plugin for Firefox, but the Firefox installation that you posted here with doesn't seen to have that plugin. Per your Additional System Details > Installed Plug-ins.
In the old days before Microsoft bought Skype (May 2011), the plugin for Firefox would have been automatically installed with the Skype program. Apparently the installation has been changed by Microsoft.
Sorry, the best I could come with is these Skype support articles:

How do I install the Skype web plugin? "There are two easy ways to install the Skype web plugin. When you first open Skype for Web you will receive a prompt:"

Have you tried asking Skype support?
Skype (microsoft) want me to install internet explorer (microsoft) because "some microsoft functionality may be missing" with my browser. But I prefer Firefox. Is there some add on to Firefox that will have whatever "missing functionality" they are talking about?
