Start up items won't stop loading

[Guest]

Everytime I turn on the computer I have to go to Systems Configuration
Utility and go to startup and disable it all, then to the general tab clear
the box for load startup just so that my computer won't freeze. How do I
clear all the unwanted junk from start up and keep it off?

Hi Glenda,

If the startup entries are reappearing automatically, then check for, and disable the "load at startup" or similar options in the corresponding applications. MSCONFIG can't stop applications from adding entries to the Startup/Run registry keys.
