    I hope somebody can help me..
    I used to use skype at home & have been using it in my new house on my laptop.. God knows why but i think i have it setup at hime in a way that anytime I get a message it'll pop up on the screen.. So the question is- is there a way to delete all chat history (or even my account) so tha nobody can see my chats at home or are they saved onto that pc & that skype account?? Sorry I'm obviously not very good with technology!!

    Just make sure you log out and don't leave your log in info lying around, you'll be fine.

    Go to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Provacy Settings and select No History and click on button Clear Chat History and click SAVE

    That should take care of it once and for all

    PS This works for version 3.8 (See Help -> About Skype for your version OR hit Help -> Check for updates for latest version)
