How To Remove Skype Call Tool From Browsers? Specifically Chrome?

If you view my page below:

http://www.noxinnovations.com/portfolio/nue/

... In Google Chrome (Specifically, maybe others as well?).

You will notice that there is some Skype Extension that allows users to do a Click-And-Call from the Browser. Which is messing up my design pretty bad...

How do I come across getting rid of this feature/function?

Is there some JavaScript? jQuery? HTML?

Thank you so much! Aaron

following jQuery Extension will return whether skype extension is installed or not. if it is installed you can remove the wraped link placed plain text.

jQuery.extend({
    skype : function(failureFunction) {
        var $ = jQuery;

        if ($.browser.safari || $.browser.opera) {
            return true;
        } else if ($.browser.msie) {
            try {
                if (new ActiveXObject("Skype.Detection")) return true;
            } catch(e) { }
        } else {
            if (typeof(navigator.mimeTypes["application/x-skype"]) == "object") {
                return true;
            }
        }
        $('a[href^="skype:"]').click(function() {
            failureFunction();
            return false;
        });
        return false;
    }

The solution is putting this meta into the section of the page/s.

<meta name="SKYPE_TOOLBAR" content="SKYPE_TOOLBAR_PARSER_COMPATIBLE" />

Hope this help
