A few weeks ago I installed Skype 4.2 for Linux (always had intermittent
sound problems).

It runs at boot up and I cannot find how its running on my Fedora 18.

With gnome desktop I looked in "gnome-session-properties" and it not
there.
I also tried Cinnamon and it still runs.

Did a bit of googling and in windoze there is a setting the "options"
window to stop it, but not in Linux! Is this a conspiracy by MS! or
can I stop it?

Regards

not a conspiracy .... Skype now is M$, why not give a try to google
hangout, instead? is not open source but gmail accounts very common and you
can have on option (paid) to call landline or mobile phones at good rates,
especially on US
