Thanks. Yes, I've used msconfig, didn't realize it was the same thing. But I'm clueless about 90% of what it loads. Basically I had to go in there because I kept getting a virus (wininit) that kept loading in the start-up folder. I finally got it eradicated, but it was my intro to msconfig. But I really have almost no idea what most of the stuff in my start-up folder is. Some is obvious, like explorer and Norton, some is a total mystery like Systray and Winamp Agent and power profile. But the system works, so I guess there's a reason for all that.
