My daughter has installed some programes, Kazza, ICQ on
her account....they also want to start when I log on with
my account...how can I stop this??
 
Hi Matt,

Start/run msconfig, go to the startup tab, disable that which you do not
want. The programs can still be used, they just will not load at logon.

As a side note, now that Kazaa is installed you have a few spyware items doing their business on your PC.

Click to expand...

If the program's start with shortcuts, move them out of All Users\Start
Menu\Programs\Startup folder into her startup folders. If the programs are
starting from a RUN key in the registry, consult the help files of the
programs for availability of "per user" settings. Or... perhaps this will
work: disable them with MSCONFIG and add shortcuts to her startup
folder.
