If you're running Windows XP you should be able to uninstall it using the Add or Remove Programs function in the Windows Control Panel

>Start
>Control Panel
>Add or Remove Programs

Find Skype in the list
Click on the item and press the Change\Remove button and follow the instructions

Go to Start, in "run" type "regedit" in lowercase, Press + on HKEY Local machine, & + on Software & look for it there. If you find it  right click , click delete. I'm no expert so if you want to
wait for another reply please do. (It works for me).
