A friend of mine has kids and he wants to know if he can start
up the family computer and load different processes/tasks/programs/utilities
than when his kids startup the computer. For example if you have norton
virus program running can you start up your computer and have that
load - but - when the kids log on they don't load that ? If so - how ?
I'm NOT talking about merely removing a program from the kids start
menu. thanks for any info . Robert
 
Hi Robert,

Disable all background loading of programs via msconfig or each program's
options. Then place shortcuts to the ones each user wants into their
individual startup folders:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
