A newer version of Skype is available for download that might solve this problem. Skype Technologies SA recommends updating to the latest version of Skype to take advantage of security and stability improvements."

recently re-installed latest skype version after having a virus removed from my laptop. i'm able to log-in and access my contact list, but that's as far as i can go. can't retrieve contact photos, and can't execute skype to skype calls...audio or video. i'm probably missing a basic setting, but can't find it. thanks.

Don't forget to check for third party programs starting Skype per previous postings above to this forum. I had the same problem and finally remembered I was using Soluto to manage my computer startup. Once I removed Skype from Soluto, it stopped starting automatically.

You are very welcome and thank you for your feedback.

I've had same problem for some time.  Something below made me try a different tact - first, open Skype and log in.  A different "Tools>>Options" dialogue screen is now available.  There you will find the magic box to uncheck to disable the "automatic startup" of skype on startup of Windows.  Message to Skype - make this box available before logging into Skype - at the first "Tools>>Options" window.  In the mean time your users are getting fed up.
