[7.500] Skype being blocked

Upgraded to 7.5 today and now i'm receiving Intrustion Prevention Alerts for skype

Classification : Potential Corporate Privacy Violation IP protocol
Snort IDs : 5693, 5998

The packets are therefore getting dropped.  However skype is allowed and I cannot find the setteing that is causing the blocks.

under IM/P2P skype is set to "log"

    So from that i got 5998, there is another one but has 5693

    Unless those are the wrong values i need to put in the IntrustionPre->advanced->modify rule (disable)
