re: Question about 'How do I stop a program from running whenever I start Windows?' Friday, April 25, 2003 at 10:52 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by joe andre (84 messages posted) I thought if I might, maybe jump in on this thread for a similar problem. AOL has convinced themselves that they own this box of parts . Anytime it feels like it , it starts, it's window covering up whatever I'm doing and dials up. I've turned off all of it's Autostart options which is supposed to take care of this. Somtimes 10-12 times an hour. Also, Intellectual interactive player, which by the way downloaded itself somewhere along the line and Realplayer . Anyone know any settings that really do work?
