on a pc? you'll need to do a little better than that. control panel (or some type of godmode depending on opsystem) > add/remove software > select skype > uninstall

i mean all i ever use skype for is webcam porn, not that i'm an expert or anything  ::)

Zack is correct . You will need to uninstall the Skype program and start over . I think Ann has had it to do a few times .

Theyer is on a Mac, so putting it in the "Trash" is how you do it.

However, there are often .plist files and other stray bits left behind in the various /user/Library OS files that you aren't supposed to touch so I recommend something like AppCleaner if putting it in the trash didn't work:

I use something called CleanMyMac which claims to go hunting for just such debrie and well does give the OS a jolly good clean up so I will also run that. I do notice a difference in loading speed and gereral alertness when its been used.
