help removing startup apps

[Tony Frisina]

Every time I get into my machine, I get aol messager
login and other (MSN) messager logins as well as Kazaa
starting up. Is there any way I can disable them without
deleting the applications?

Tony,

Both AIM and MSN have settings in their options that you can click so that
they do not run when you log on to Windows.

MSN.

Click Tools - Options - And uncheck the box "Automatically run Messenger
when I log on to Windows.

AIM

Click My AIM - Edit Options - Edit Preferences
Click Sign On/Off
Uncheck the box for "Start AIM when Windows starts

Kazaa

I dont know about Kazaa, but look in their options for a setting. If you do
not find anything, you can always do the following.
Start - Run - MSCONFIG
Click the Startup tab.
Find Kazaa and uncheck it.

Hope this helps,

Thanks.

Open the application(s) and look for the options, preferences, whatever it
may be called. You should find a way to keep them from loading at startup
in there. Or, try right clicking their respective icons in the system tray
for such an option.

Same with Kazaa
