"my computer" starts when XP starts.

[Les]

When XP Pro starts "My Computer" starts as if I double clicked on it. What
can I do to prevent this?

TIA...Les"

Is there a shortcut to it in Start, Programs, Startup?

 

[Les]

Hi Bob;
Thanks for your input. I finally was able to make it back over there and it
is not in the Start Up folder. Any other thoughts?

Thanks again...Les

If you go to Start, Run, and enter MSCONFIG

and then when that starts up go to the "Startup" tab, and review the
listings that are there, for something peculiar.

Programs can also be started at startup because they are on the Startup tab
of msconfig or in the registry.

I found this on Google, you might give it a try.
