Skype on Slackware 64

Hi!
I've downloaded the static version (skype_static-2.1.0.81.tar.bz2) and extracted it. Then I tried to start the Skype executable file (./skype) via the terminal but nothing happens.

Code:

root@xxx:~# ls
skype_static-2.1.0.81/  skype_static-2.1.0.81.tar.bz2
root@xxx:~# cd skype_static-2.1.0.81
root@xxx:~/skype_static-2.1.0.81# ls
LICENSE  README  avatars/  icons/  lang/  skype*  skype.conf  skype.desktop  sounds/
root@xxx:~/skype_static-2.1.0.81# ./skype
bash: ./skype: No such file or directory

What am I supposed to do now ?
