If you are referring to the option
"Allow Microsoft targeted ads, including use of Skype profile age and gender"
then it doesn't work because I had that option unchecked but I was still
hearing "advertisement" each time I opened a chat window.
The 5 euro donation for Microsoft solved it though. :-)

Hi!
You don't need Skype credit to get rid of the ads in Skype.
Here's how to get rid of them in Skype 7.1 for Windows, without spending any
money or having to do anything very complicated. Go into the Tools menu in
Skype, then into Options, then arrow down to Privacy Settings. Then tab down to
the dialogue, and hit the Show Advanced Options button. In the new dialogue
this button opens, there is a checkbox saying something like Show Targeted Ads:
make sure this is unchecked.
I'm pretty sure these instructions work for earlier Windows Skype versions.
I hope this helps!
Bye for now, and happy skyping!

How can we add Skype credits and how much do we need to add? Does it require
providing a credit card, or the payment can be done with PayPal?

If you have Skype credits then adds should not show.

Hello List:
When I first joined this list about October, someone mentioned that there
was a way to hide or get rid of the advertisement panes on the Windows desktop
Skype screen. I tried to look it up in the archive but I was unsuccessful. Any
assistance is greatly appreciated, as I am getting tired of tabbing through
these areas. Thanks in advance.
Diana
