Tarheel, what’s wrong with “I downloaded it from this website”?

Yes, 11 is good.

I don't like 7 at all!

1. "We met on Skype."
2. "We met over Skype."

'Skype' is a proper noun, since it's the name of a specific application.

Why do you need to specify Hotmail? If he has more than one account, you could say the following:

I sent an email to his Hotmail account.
