Kellys-Korner has a script that will delete the entries from the Registry
for you.
Look at line 148 on the right side at:

Dave,
The disabled entries are present in any of the locations:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg]
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SharedTools\MSConfig\startupfolder]
To remove the entries, open Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) and navigate to the above paths. Backup the registry key before deleting it.

Programs that appear in Startup can be stopped by going into each program's
options/preferences/setup where you check a box or something similar.. a
right click on an icon in the system tray will get you there.. MSCONFIG is a
diagnostic tool, not a fix.. it becomes more of a problem for the
uninitiated as summarily removing entries in Startup often results in
anti-virus and firewall programs not starting at all..

I was shocked, surprised and humbled to be even nominated.. you can imagine
my surprise at actually receiving the award.. one can only hope that I
continue to get it right more than I get it wrong.. but even Homer nods (not
Homer Simpson)..
Strange that they should have told me that at school all those years ago..
if one was to quote the teaching staff with that statement, chalk marked
you, smartly followed by an incoming board rubber.. ouch.. my Latin master
was deadly accurate too.. do they still use chalk in schools?..

Mike,
I know *exactly* how you feel.
School? I think that I went to school with Homer. At least it seems that
long ago. LOL

This guy Wesley seems like a competent fellow to me.. we have been following
each other around in these newsgroups for a while now.. we must have come
along the same learning curve, because we often agree.. and you know what
they say.. 'great minds think alike.. any mention of the 'fools' part of the
proverb from the cheap seats gets a cyber slap from Wesley and myself..)

Good to be aboard.. whenever I have travelled by ship, I always stand as far
aft as the 'crew only' barriers allow.. does this mean now that I can stand
right on the very back, because if you watch ships sinking, the back part is
always last to disappear?..

Not always the back part.
v.i.z those "Liberty Ships" that broke up in high seas in the North
Atlantic in 194x, or ships damaged by an explosive device, or were
scuttled.
