So if you don’t want Skype running all the time, how do you prevent it starting up as part of the computer’s booting up process? Note to Microsoft don’t annoy us Northerners. I just don’t want it hogging resources all the bloody time.
And it is occasionally useful for messaging and video conferencing. Unfortunately the Malicious Software Removal Tool won’t get rid of it. In fact, alongside the in-stream advertising and the removal of the log of calls made, duration, destination and cost, Skype now behaves like the worst kind of malware. Nor does it sit in your Start Up Programmes folder.
Ever since Microsoft took over Skype, it installs automatically with Internet Explorer, starts itself at boot time and is impossible to stop from the Skype client as there is no longer an option in the settings to do so.
