Start-Run-type msconfig-StartUp tab
you uncheck what you do not need.
I have XP Home and want to remove the icons in the systray (by the clock) and keep them from running a start-up. Sorry to ask such a dumb question but I can't get a handle on how to do it. Add/remove wants to delete the prog and I can't drag them out of there the way you can drag then in. Thanks for your help.
