1) Stop Skype from running on your computer (Quit).
2) Go to Windows Start. In the search box type %appdata%\skype and press Enter. The Skype user folder will appear.
3) Look for and open the folder that has your user name
4) Find “config.xml” File.
5) Open this file in any text editor (Notepad, etc)
6) Search the file until you see the section starting with the key <General>. In this section you should see following items
<FlamingoDisconnected>1</FlamingoDisconnected>
<FlamingoLastRead>0</FlamingoLastRead>
<FlamingoLastUpdate>0</FlamingoLastUpdate>
The first item is the one controlling whether the Facebook tab is present or not. If the value is 1, the tab is disconnected, 0 means the tab is connected. (In other words: 1 = Off and 0 = ON)
If the mentioned item is missing, then you should just add it in front of the two other items. Save the config.xml file and restart Skype. The Facebook tab will no longer be there.
Enjoy!
