how do i remove all the crap that starts up when i reboot using msn explorer
(msn messenger,ect
 
Open each program that starts with Windows -- or at least, the ones you
consider "crap" -- and go through the menus until you come across the
option where you choose whether the program starts with Windows. Choose
to not start with Windows, or choose to not display an icon in the
system tray, and restart your computer.

If anything crap-like is left, open your Startup folder and remove the
shortcuts to the offending programs. Restart your computer.

Still smelling something you don't like? Identify the programs
responsible and either uninstall them or ask the program's technical
support for advice.

[Or, you can do what the uninformed do and hack away at your computer
until the icons stop appearing. That'll work. And if a few weeks you'll
write back complaining about how your computer 'suddenly' started acting
weird. ;-)]
