(Chat-)Ads on Skype

[Syrus]

So, I don't know who else ever had problems with this, but ... since I had ... and since I felt like sharing this...

To get rid of the chat-ads (that just now started appearing on my already small-sized chat windows) I did the following, and it appears to have worked:

0) Exit Skype
1) Open Internet Explorer
2) Open Internet Options
3) Go to Security and select Restricted sites
4) Click Sites
5) Add

Code:

https://apps.skype.com/

click OK
6) Go to General, click Delete, and click Delete again
7) Open Skype, the blank space should be gone and there will be no ads
I don't know what the implications are and whether there any issues with other skype apps, but so far this is the only possible solution that I can think of.

Also putting this down so in case anyone ever asks me, I know where to point him.
