Nella versione di Skype 4 non bisogna più andare in “Visualizza” per eliminare i contatti di Outlook ma bisogna andare in “Contatti” (seconda scelta nella barra delle funzioni) e si trova:
“Mostra contatti di Outlook”.

In myh version of Skype the option to hide Outlook COntacts is now under Contacts not View – but then it is a simple case of unticking the option. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though. Bj

I think Marco/Marco Franse owes the “idiots” at Skype an apology, no?

I don’t work for them – it just annoys me when people fall back on the easy insult, and when shown their error aren’t big enough to apologise.

By the way thanks for the tip – this has been bugging me for some time.

In 4.0.0.206 the option is under: Contacts –> Show Outlook Contacts

Untick it and it disappears

It’s there, just click on Contacts, and Show Outlook Contacts.

This option is no longer available in version 4.0.0.206! You just have to put up with the Outlook contacts until the idiots at Skype decide to put the option to hide it back again

I couldn’t remove mine this way. I had to go into Skype > preferences > general tab. Once in there click show outlook contacts and it will either show or not show depending on if you ticked it.

If the menu item is disabled, open outlook and the menu item gets enabled.

But what do you do if the “Show Outlook Contacts” option is grayed out and not accessible? I really would like the putlook contacts deleted altogether. Never wanted them there in the first place. Thanks

f*** Skype! I never told it to import contacts. I am sick of software that does what you never told it to…
THANK YOU, man!
