2003 Outlook should have option to disable auto startup

[Guest]

Outlook 2003 Student Teacher Edition should have an option to disable the
automatic startup when booting up your pc or notebook. It's very annoying
having to wait for it to load as well as send and receive emails everytime
you startup your pc or notebook. When you don't want to check your email
right away, it's very frustrating having to wait. Am I the only user that
feels this way.

I haven't used that version of Office 2003, but have you checked your Startup
folder in Start Menu | All Programs to see if there's a shortcut to Office or
Outlook in there? If so, delete the shortcut and Outlook will no longer open
when you log into Windows -- you'd have to open it manually.

Click Start>Run and enter "msconfig" in the Open field. Click OK. Examine
the "Startup" tab. That should show you where the reference to Outlook is
that is starting it up. Remove that reference from the location shown by
MSCONFIG.
