how do I take task off of startbar menu

[Guest]

Need to know how to take a task of the startbar menu. Something from the
internet got on my taskbar and it keeps my computer transmitting hour glass
on my screen.

this is not an excel question. post in the windows
newsgroup.
run virus scan too.

It might not be enough to remove it from the Start Menu--(unless it's under the
windows start|Programs|startup menu??).

But in newer versions of windows, you can just rightclick on that item and
choose delete.

I created a "Don't startup" under my windows start button|programs menu.

I just drag and drop (and delete later)--just in case that wasn't the problem.
