not entirely sure what you mean by command bar in top right hand corner!

What options do you get if you right click on it?

[legendis.god]

the command bar is under the tool bar which is under the address bar and the icon is in the top right hand corner.
no.knowledge is right you have no knowledge !!!
legendis if it was that easy just to click on it and delete guess what I would have done ?

Does this Skype icon have numbers in it - 1,2,3?

Is your browser IE or Firefox?

[ChuckFickens]

is it in internet explorer we are talking about here?

and did you try right clicking on it?

[vink]

it's IE and no numbers Ethel but I have the same prog' on my laptop but no skype icon only the google home icon
and to the numpty I'm glad you got rid of your icon but the question was how

[ChuckFickens]

is there a little down arrow right next to the icon?

if so click on the down-arrow and select "Remove Skype add-on for IE"

[Ethel]

Sorry, I have no idea. I got rid of the one with numbers in, which just made every number on a webpage ringable, but I haven't seen the icon you are having problems with

[vink]

well ask him how he did it and we will both be wiser

[ChuckFickens]

Am I talking to myself here!!!!

[vink]

sorry chuchfickens I got distracted by the mumpty
there is a little arrow but no matter what I try next time I boot up there it is and thanks for ur imput

[ChuckFickens]

OK think you have two options,

Or click on the tools menu select manage add-ons, then enable or disable add-ons, find skype in the list of add-ons click on it and then select disable just below the list and click OK.

If that doesn't work you may have to uninstall skype and reinstall it but make sure you click on options during the install and click "disable IE add on"
