You will have to disable Skype's autostart launcher.

The restart style determines what should be done if the application crashes.

I checked that before I raised the issue. There's no Skype in there. That's why I assumed this had to be from session saving. The only place Skype appears in xfce4-session-settings is in "Session", where I can't set restart to "Never".

Clear the session cache and make sure that the previous session is not restored automatically.
