You can do this with regedit. You heard this a hundred times, before you play with the registry back it up. Start>Run>Type regedit>OK. Next, Highlight My Computer. Edit>Find>type msconfig>click Find Next. This will bring you to the MSConfig folder. Expanded it and you will see a folder startupreg, expanded it you will see all the entries that you unchecked in msconfig. Delete them and close regedit. Open regedit and they will be gone. Tom
