Thanks for the hint.
There is nothing in ~/.kde/Autostart/ (this directory is empty),
but I see an entry
	restartCommand6=/usr/bin/skype,
in ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc .
I guess this must cause skype to start on login.

"rpm -qf" says this file is not owned by any package.
But I see on googling that ksmserver is "KDE's session manager".
However, I don't see how entries get into this file.
The references I find by googling all refer to files
that do not exist on my system.
