Skype toolbar for Outlook -- getting rid of it right away

It was nice while it lasted, but the Skype toolbar for MS Outlook simply has to go. I’m getting ready to remove it now — as soon as Skype gives control over Outlook back to me. Skype reads every email that you click for the email address. It compares the email address against your Outlook...

Hmmm...Skype for MS Outlook

One thing I don’t like so far with the Skype add-in for MS Outlook is that it doesn’t recognize landlines (i.e., the Home or Business options) in MS Outlook contacts — only the cell phone numbers. Maybe, there’s a setting I’m missing. Off to check. UPDATE: For some reason...

Uhhhh...

OK…so I uninstalled Microsoft’s new Expression Web Designer. Guess what? It also uninstalled Microsoft Outlook at the same time! I had to use a Restore Point from last week to get MS Outlook to work correctly again. Beta…

New Windows Search 4.0 kills MS Outlook performance

I’m hoping this is just an initial indexing problem after installing the newly released Windows Search 4.0, but ever since installing it, MS Outlook is running dog slow (sorry to all the dogs out there for that reference).

Tell me why...

Why does it take longer to open a Microsoft Office application that it does to get to Google in your web browser? There’s something wrong with this picture.

I hate you all...

Skype is pretty dang cool — works great! Now, why was I so against it again? Thanks everyone for your insistence in getting me to try this thing. I’ve been Skyped!
