Not sure what you mean by "almost completed". You have to wait for the Skype file to download completely and then open Finder\Downloads and double click on the Skype dmg file you'll find there.

Unless you have specified otherwise, you should find the .dmg file in the Downloads folder (near the right end of the Dock).
