A user returned a computer with a program that starts
automatically. We don't want this program to start automatically. I can't seem to stop it. Places I have checked for automatic startup: - Autoxec.bat (Does not exist.) - Win.ini - All Users/Startup - User/Startup - Default/Startup - Registry: HKEY...\Run - Registry: HKEY...\Run Once - Policy for system and user. There is a service which is not on other machines and may be this program starting. I have disabled that service and the program still starts. I don't know how to remove this service. Any ideas where this thing could be hiding? |

If you can identify it in task manager how's about just
searching for it in the registry? >-----Original Message----- >A user returned a computer with a program that starts >automatically. We don't want this program to start >automatically.
