How do you remove programs from the start up menu.I don't
want to delete them,just keep them from running at start
up.

Go to>>> C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
Left click and drag 'em out of there.

-------------
Start/Run/type: msconfig /OK/Startup tab/UNCheck the programs.
-------------
Unchecking these programs in the Startup tab of msconfig is not a fixall. That
should
be done within the programs themselves, if possible.
Look to see what programs you have listed under the Startup tab. Open
those
programs, one at a time, and look in Options, Settings, Preferences, Properties
or
similar. Look to see if there is an option like: Load at startup, or: Start
when Windows
starts or similar. Uncheck or de-select these options.

James,

Startup Control Panel (free) from http://www.mlin.net/ is a neat
little applet in your Control Panel that lets you do just that. You
can add, delete, or disable items in any of the 5 startup lists.

Cheers,

Chuck
