skype should have always launched at startup.

we haven't updated Xfce in a long time, so unlikely its our update. Might be skype's I guess.

in the skype settings, there should be a setting for autostart or you can check in Session & Startup and uncheck the skype entry (although if you launch skype, it might get reset).
