If I'm not mistaken, Me has a msconfig - System configuration utiltiy same as 9x. 

Goto Start > Run type:msconfig. Under the startup tab is a list of processes running 
in the background.

I'm just not familiar enough with Me, so I don't recall, but it doesn't take much 
to find out. :)

Those items by the clock are running constantly in the background....

Right-click on the icons in the tray area, open each, go through the options to turn 
off the "tray" or "run at startup" feature. 

Msconfig startup list.....Leave systray, scan registry, Load Power Profile, *StateMgr, 
your virus scanner and firewall if you have one. 

Note: Load Power Profile will be listed twice and only needs to be checked if you're 
using Power saving features.

Msconfig....Things safe to remove
