When ever I boot my computer and the desktop loads the last loads and my
Documents & Settings my profile opens. What causes this and how do I
prevent it?
 
Go to start/run, and type:
%userprofile%

This is probably what you will find in one of the command lines for one of
your startup app. I would look over the Run keys in the registry.

HKEY_Current_User/.... AND
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Checked all locations in registry and startup applications and found
nothing. Any other ideas?

Maybe turning off each autostarting app one by one would get it on
process of elimination. Run MSCONFIG.exe. The Startup tab has checkboxes
for that.
That will take for ever since I have a load that starts. I tried
disabling some of the new ones with no luck. It is annoying, but does no
real harm loading so if I have to I will live with this problem. Thanks.
