If you have the Skype (www.skype.com) plug-in installed in Internet Explorer you may have noticed that it detects telephone numbers and converts them into Skype links so you can click it in order to make a call on Skype.

If you are not careful, this reformatting might brake your crafted site layout.

The following CSS snippet will remove the formatting added by Skype.

span.skype_pnh_container {display: none !important;}
