Few minutes (not hours) ago the iPhone Dev Team released another update for Redsn0w 0.9.7 to fix Skype issues on iOS device. Redsn0w 0.9.7b6 is available for Mac OS X users only and in next version, the target will be adding iOS 4.1 monte so you don't need to pirate iOS 4.2b3 to allow untethered jailbreak on iOS 4.2.1.

The sixth beta is now available (testers ONLY please!). This version fixes Skype. Please do not pirate the 4.2b3 IPSW! Only those enrolled in the iPhone Developer program have legitimate access to that IPSW using these links (http://pastie.org/1403214) (the links won’t work unless you’re a legit developer currently logged in).

Unlike the last few betas, you can freely run beta6 over beta5 without a problem (but for testing purposes, we’d really like people to try both ways….from stock, and from already jailbroken).

Now that the sandbox, Bluetooth, and Skype issues are fixed, our next priority is porting Monte back to 4.1. We’ll also try to make the Windows version less painfully slow.
To use Redsn0w 0.9.7b5, use our guide posted here while removing STEP 4 since it doesn't required usbmuxd anymore.
