You will be prompted to reload windows. Be carefull what you inhibit some of them are essential to the running of security systems. HTH |

| 475522 | 2006-08-02 10:21:00 | Check out pacs-portal (www.pacs-portal.co.uk) for a list of programs at startup. Very thorough. Used to be a FAQ about this but can't find it, but pacs portal was linked anyway. Excellent stuff. HTH......m |

| 475524 | 2006-08-02 11:38:00 | Have a look in start, all programs, startup. Anything in that folder will be automatically started on startup. | roddy_boy (4115) | ||
| 475525 | 2006-08-03 02:00:00 | Go here www.dougknox.com and download Doug's little program. Good one to put on the service CD! | linw (53) | ||
| 475526 | 2006-08-03 03:43:00 | Actually you can prevent Windows Messenger from running on startup, through the use of the simple 'Run Windows Messenger when Windows Starts' option box in the preferences tab of Windows Messenger options. | Pancake (6359) | ||
| 475527 | 2006-08-03 07:37:00 | Or get this (www.dougknox.com) from here (http://www.dougknox.com/) and remove messenger altogether. Its buggy. And use MSN Messenger or the Live version thats just come out. |
