Take a look in your Startup Folder (Right-click on the Start button, choose "Open", double-click on "Programs" and then open the "Startup" folder) and see if there are any shortcuts in there.

Hi, Click start/run, type msconfig and click ok. Go to the startup tab and uncheck the entries that load them here. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Associate Expert - WindowsXP Expert Zone www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Muler" <Muler RemoveThis @discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:6FC486B7-2345-426E-A6B8-BC783419CCCA@microsoft.com... > How can I stop MS money and Outlook express etc automatically starting up > when I log on? >> Stay informed about: Stop files opening at startup

I am having the same problem. I try to run msconfig, but it says it cannot find the file name. i also tried to right click on start, open, programs, startup, and that folder is empty. Any other suggestions? Thanks. "Rick "Nutcase" Rogers" wrote: > Hi, > > Click start/run, type msconfig and click ok.

The first place to look for disabling s/w from starting is in program's options, or preferences, whatever that specific app calls it. Under there, it's usually a section....'General', or 'Startup Options', or similar. >> Stay informed about: Stop files opening at startup

[ I recently had a problem after Outlook Express kept loading on Startup (having just downloaded Microsoft updates) and looked EVERYWHERE but, apparently, the problem is with a programme Hcontrol.exe and ATKOSD.exe. These are only active on laptops and i unchecked them from Msconfig and the problem went away with no side-effects; so what is going on? -- archdeacon >> Stay informed about: Stop files opening at startup
