You may control your startup programs by following the link below

As for the browser, you may have a virus or spyware hijacking your pc

Win98 and WinXp have MSCONFIG, but Win2k does not... be VERY
CAREFUL what you disable, or your computer may not run at all
This program does that http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml
Also
Free Firewall http://smb.sygate.com/products/spf/spf_ov.htm
Stop Flash from taking "forever" to download those huge files

called 'internat.exe', that stop the ATI MMC folder from opening after
login..Still get the Internet HomePage set to 'http://hot-searches.com'..
