Hi Rovin, what you should do is, first, making sure you kept the .dmg file, which is the disc image of skype, go in to your applications folder with command shift a, and move skype to the trash, then, find the disc image of skype, and open this up with command o, and once you select your view, arrow down to the skype.app, copy this to the clip board, and go to the applications folder with command shift A, and paste it in with command v, and run the application to install it, and then eject the skype icon from the finder with command e, and see if that will stop the skype icon from coming back.

After opening that, I had to enter my Skype id and password and it signed me in, I also found it to be quite VO accessible. After just restarting the Mac, I had "Skype" next to macintosh hd. This seems to be a folder, after opening that I again found a Skype application, but when I tried to open that nothing happened... So what I'd like to try now is uninstall Skype and reinstall it to see if that fixes the problem. But how can I uninstall it? I tried to delete the Skype next to macintosh hd, but this won't work, only thing I can do is eject it and then, after restarting it's back... Is there anything special I have to do?
