When I logon, there are 56 processes running. My
available memory drops to 10 meg. How do I control the
start up processes?

Jim,

I use Startup Control Panel (to identify and remove processes), and
StartupMonitor (to block processes), both free, from <http://www.mlin.net/>.

To decide what should and shouldn't start,
<http://www.sysinfo.org/startuplist.php> is useful.

Also, for information about services,
<http://www.blackviper.com/Articles/OS/OSguides.htm>.

Cheers,
Chuck
