1315635 2012-11-30 03:07:00 This is driving me nuts as I can't get it sorted in spite of much googling . My sister uses the browser gmail interface and had problems with sending her bank a/c to customers as part of the number was seen as a phone number and was highlighted and had a Skype link .

Well I disabled the Skype add-on in IE and uninstalled Skype click-to-call and this improved things as the recipient no longer gets the highlights . So this really addresses the major part of the problem .

However, I can't find any way of getting rid of the composed email having a blue underlined telephone click link . Mine doesn't do this so something has been installed/clicked in hers .

Several people have said to uninstall 'Google chat plugin' from Programs but hers doesn't have this .

Just wondered if someone knows what's up with this .

(Win 7, IE9, Skype installed)

LL is right, try another browser you've not had installed previously.

In IE10 this is done by pressing Alt, and then clicking Tools > Manage addons. IE9 should be pretty much the same.
