There are a couple of programs that run on startup that I no longer *want* to
run. Notably there is a spyware whose DLL I've removed which barks at me and
an HP menu that I don't require. If I go into MSCONFIG-STARTUP, I can
de-check both of them then apply the changes. This *appears* to work but when
I reboot, there they both are, still running. (I'm the administrator). Not to
mention the fact that the System Config tool pops up on loading and tells me
I'm running in "Selective Startup". (Clicking the check box to tell it NOT to
tell me that has zero impact). So how can I take items out of startup? Is
there an INI or something I can modify? Help. This is maddening!
