Does anyone know how to set how far BACK in TIME the calendar will keep records? A client of mine was just upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003, he said that before the upgrade he has schedules up to 3 years back, and now it only goes back to the beginning of Jan 2005.?

Thanks for any responses in advance.

hi ,
i m tryin to practise the HTTPServlets and so i installed Tomcat 5 and installed J2sdk1.4.1 and gave the correct path while installing Tomcat 5. My context root inside c:/tomcat/webapps is jhpt5 . and i made two subdirectories inside jhpt5 ,servlets and WEB-INF . I placed the .html in servlets . In WEB-INF i put web.xml with correct deployment descriptor.and placed another subdirectory classes inside WEB-INF.This is where i puit all java servlet programs tht has to b invoked through the .html . i m able to get the webpage while running server thru port 8080 but wen i try to instantiate the "get" request thru servlets,that is tryin to call the class i get the CLASS NOT FOUND exception in the webpage. precisely, the heirarchial view is(folders -bold ,FILES -italics)

Could anyone help me out with where i have gone wrong.
cheersFor the record folks, I know nothing about servlets, have virtually no Java programming experience and have never installed Tomcat. Any takers for this query?i found what my problem was. I had to compile the .java file and shud place the .class file in WEB-INF . I have not compiled the .java file earlier. But i have a problem there as well . I dont know how to get servlets compiled , because when i tried to compile with eclipse , it showed that import javax.servlets.* and javax.http.* could not be RECOGNISED . Is it something to do with library . Or is ther any other way to compile servlets . Some help on this topic would be very useful and informative . Thanks

hi all,

My outlook has gone a bit crazy. I use it (badly) a lot & its absolutely chock full with important messages & other bits i really have to keep. But its doing weird things, like not letting me reply to mails & stuff now. Do i need to allocate more hard disk space for it? My disk is not full by any stretch but outlook seems to be, its always archiving off messages. A friend tried to sort it out over the phone, but its worse, as now i have several inbox's instead, which is causing me real headaches.

is it possible to get all my data off, re-start outlook & put all my data back on again, like fresh? without multiple inboxes?

any help muchly appreciated, thankyou.

Paul

ok, i've been doing some poking around myself & it seems the problem is stemming from the fact that i have a 'personal files' FOLDER in the folder list in outlook, but it doesnt seem to be attatched to a data file.

ive looked in tools->mail options -> data files & its not listed.
ive also right CLICKED on the folder itself & looked at its properties & i get an ERROR returned 'data OBJECT could not be found'.

this is where my problems are i think. how can i delete this rougue folder? i cant delete the data object because it doesnt exist according to outlook. & i cant delete it from the folder view inside outlook either. i'm stumped :-?

thanks,

PaulDepending on the version there is a outlook repair tool Scanpst.exe DOWNLOAD it from :-
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010549311033.aspx

the other thing it could be is that the amount of email is over the limit that oulook can handle, and your temp folder could probably be cleaned out as well.
there are in internet explorer/ tools/ delete files delete cookies, and clears history.which should cut it all back safely.

Hello everybody;
I NEED some help with my computer,and my programs or exe's.The problems are that when I go and double click on programs on my desk top my hour glass appears as normal spins around and a round and nothing comes up.I did a find target and that didn't work.No messages come up or anything like that like missing file or the path is not correct.Also recently when I want to use windows media player 9.0 I cant connect to the radio and more also can't get my cd's to play anymore or to play any of my dvd's and I have reloaded media player 9.0 3 times still does not work some of my programs do work like yahoo mail and messenger also AOL but some do not I have a anti virus and BOUGHT a registry cleaner.So I don't know if it a DLL file problem or its a virus that was not found.Do I just do a reload of window 98se or is there someone that has come across this problem and can help me.It might even be a kernel problem.I might just go out and reload my computer with Windows XP but I don't want to lose all my great programs.If theres anyone that can help I would appreiate it.
grayhulk12grayhulk12....... Probably the best thing you could do would be to wipe the hard drive and install Win XP ....... You will find it much better than win 98SE ...... As far as your great programs ........ don't you have them on cds so you can easily reload them if required ?
Will your pc support Win XP ? ........ what processor do you have and how much RAM is installed ......... how much memory does the GRAPHICS card have ?

Thanks alot it worked

I'm sure this has a stupidly simple answer but my experience with MS is that the simplier something SHOULD be, the more difficult it actually is and this is no exception.....

For some reason (totally randomly - clicked nothing!) MS Word (2000) has started to show all the returns, tabs, spaces etc i make. So for example, a space now results in a dot SHOWING between the words, a return/enter now results in the P-shaped symbol showing up on empty lines, I have arrows between my bullet points and heaven knows what else it's decided to show me for no reason at all.

I am pretty sure there is an option SOMEWHERE to just turn it showing all of that stuff off. But million dollar question - WHERE? I have searched high and low and of course the helpfiles are about as helpful as a bag of salt in the ocean.

Can someone please, please tell me how to turn this thing off?

Thanks

Maxi2011Tools-->Options-->View. Under "FORMATTING marks", uncheck "All". Or, click on the Show/Hide button on Word's Standard toolbar. It looks like a paragraph symbol. Thank you both so MUCH! You have saved me much frustration!

I appriaciate your time

I'm using OUTLOOK 2000. I had one EMAIL account for years that works fine. But I set up a second email account on a different server recently, and I'm checking both accounts with one Outlook profile (IMO mode). It tends to work fine for a while, it sends and receives well, but later in the day (presumably when peak time hits) it will inevitably get a server timeout or error connecting server. I know the error is a result of the server, HOWEVER, my Outlook never reconnects with the server once it gets the error. The only way to reconnect is to shut down Outlook and reopen it, then I have a bunch of email downloaded that were WAITING for me on the server. One other computer in my office has the same problem, but 8 others do not.
My server settings are correct because they are exactly the same as those who have no problems. I don't know why it won't reconnect on the next try (it's set to check email every 1 MINUTE). But I always have to shut down and restart Outlook (not restart Windows). I've deleted and RECREATED the account, but still nothing.
I thought maybe multiple Outlook applications were running, but I don't see any in ctrl+alt+del. ANY ideas would really be appreciated!!!! :-?

Using Outlook 2000 (my work account - I have no choice).

The INBOX in my folder list is showing a BLUE 64 in brackets, indicating I have 64 unread messages. What's displaying on the SCREEN, however, is 5 messages, all read.

The 64 unread sounds right, because I was away from the OFFICE last week and that's about my normal volume. Any suggestions?If you go to Tools, Options, then SELECT the Mail Setup tab, is the Send immediatley when connected box checked under Send/Receive?

[glb]Gizmo73[/glb]It is.

Under normal circumstances, my AV program is updated DAILY (sometimes just the signatures, sometimes just the .exe modules, sometimes both). This week it was both.

The Sygate Firewall starts automatically from the registry during system startup.

During todays weekly AV scan, the following window was posted by the firewall (sygate):

This would have been fine and dandy except the window was posted 15 minutes into the AV scan. To make matters worse, the AV scan continued to run while I debated how to respond to this message. Normally I would just respond "yes" to dismiss the window, but today I waited an hour, all the while the AV scan continued to process.

Am I asking too much for the firewall to post the window immediately upon the AV startup when the discrepency should have been noticed? Am I also asking too much to have the firewall suspend execution of this or any program where it finds a PROBLEM and wait for the user (me!) to respond to the window?

If you have any thoughts on this, I'd appreciate hearing them.

8-)Nothing to worry about, your AV has updated it's exe file & Sygate saw the change.Thanks Fed but I was hoping there was something actually wrong here. I understand why the window popped-up, I was more concerned about the 15 minute time lag it took to do so and why the AV program was not suspended while I delayed choosing what to do.

I thought this is what firewalls did at the minimum. Interesting thought: Will an AV program discover a virus in it's own executable?

8-)Sidewinder...... Is it possible that your Av was utilizing all of your machines resources while it was scanning and that would possibly explain the delay .....
What are the specs on your machine ? You didn't happen to check what was going on with the task manager did you ?

dl65 I'd think Sygate would only popup when avscan tried to access the net and that access would have been blocked until you decided what to do.
Probably avscan checking for new virus sigs & nothing to do with the virus scan you were running.Thanks guys I appreciate the help. Let me try to explain more. All my maint programs including AV sig updates and AV scans run from a logon script. The script is crafted so each program runs sequentially with no execution overlap.

Most maint programs are scheduled for Saturday at startup. AV sigs are checked for daily. The AV scan runs each Sunday. The actual .exe update took place Sat when the sigs were also updated. When the scan ran Sunday, the Sygate window popped-up and specifically mentioned the changes to the avscan.exe file which is the AV scanner program.

I didn't check the task manager list, but considering a scan program would use lots of I/O, the Sygate program should have no problem grabbing an interrupt.

The system is a Dell Inspiron 5150 Laptop 2.4 GHz, 512MB Ram, 40GB disk, XP SP2 fully updated and reasonably protected. Haven't actually found a virus, trojan, or other malware in over 14 months.

Maybe I'm concerned about nothing, but that 15 minute lag and the non-suspension of the job in question seems out of character for a firewall.

8-)

Here's my theory & I'm sticking to it.

15 minutes into the scan your avscan.exe tried to access the internet but since it was 'changed' on the last update Sygate picked it up.
Then the avscan.exe was blocked from accessing the internet until you gave it the OK.
Needless to say the scan continued on thoughout this time although internet access was blocked.
My bet is that your avscan 'calls home' to either report info or get info or both.OK guys. I'll buy Fed's theory for now. Seems reasonable as anything else I've heard from my friends. Phones home, huh? Wonder where it calls? Sygate was discontinued after being sold to Symantec. Maybe it just calls that empty phone booth in dataland.

[Sigh]

8-)Not Sygate, Avscan accessing the internet.
I'm currently trialing (playing with) Prevx1, I think it does the same.

I have Adobephoto Elements that i bought over the net and i need to down load it on to a disc but have no idea :-[were to start pleasr helpDo you STILL have the file you downloaded? (either a cmpressed folder or .EXE file)

Hello all. Here's one for all of those of you who are far cleverer than me. I didn't know quite where to post it since it covers a variety of software manufacturers

Up until recently I was with AOL and on a 56k connection, with a pay-per-minute scheme that was done through a place of WORK which allowed a certain amount of people to be registered with them (so as to stop paying any additional flat-rate subscription fee). Anyway, after years of it playing up, AOL finally died so now I have broadband via Tiscali and as far as I know I am nothing to do with the connection to the workplace anymore. However, the AOL symbol still appears in the top right hand corner of my browser (it looks like Internet Explorer). I am very sketchy on the details of how this whole AOL thing worked though, as it was a parent who set it up from where they worked, and she doesn't know either, having got someone else to do it for her many years ago.

The internet itself works fine, but other programs just don't seem to recognise my connection. Automatic updates for Windows aren't working even though I've told it to update automatically, AVG (the free one) can't connect to update itself, MSN Messenger states a problem with connecting to the network, iTunes can't get on to the Music Store (because "the network connection was refused" and Windoze Media Player 10 can't get the codecs it requires to play files. Also, although when I type in an address on the internet it works fine, when it initially loads up it is unable to establish a connection, even though I have set a valid homepage.

My firewall is active but has been set to allow Messenger, etc. to be allowed through, but even with the firewall off the problem persists.

Control Panel > Internet Properties > Connections has Tiscali Broadband as my default and 'dial whenever a network connection is not present. I don't know about LAN settings because unless I'm HORRIBLY MISTAKEN I'm not on any network, and anyway, beyond knowing what LAN stands for, I know very little about how it works.

A couple of things I've searched for in the internet have suggested something about proxy settings, but I have no idea what this means. I'm presuming that either the computer cannot seem to connect to the internet automatically, and this may be to do with my previous set up being connected to a sort of network previously. Or something else entirely. However, whilst I have explored the various options of connecting to the internet on the programs in QUESTION, the fact that it is occurring with many of them would suggest a change needs to be made to my internet connection as a whole, wouldn't it?

Anyway, if anyone is still awake after that lengthy description, I promise if you know how to solve my problem I'll, umm, er... I'll tell you a very funny joke! Honest...Quote

I don't know about LAN settings because unless I'm horribly mistaken I'm not on any network, and anyway, beyond knowing what LAN stands for, I know very little about how it works.

You should remove all Dial-up entries and configurations.

If you are using broadband, there is no reason to keep the Dial-up settings.

I noticed today that when going on to the internet it says at the bottom of the screen that it is trying to connect to a proxy server related to the old connection of my mum's workplace, which we should have nothing to do with anymore.

Hey I have downloaded incredimail and cannot get the right addresses to recieve and send my emails through it?

Problem: Unable to set-up an e-mail account in Outlook 2000 "Inernet Mail Only" config because the TOOLS/ACCOUNTS tab won't OPEN. START/CONTROL PANEL/MAIL won't open either. Comcast mail is my current default program. Is it possible to UNINSTALL Outlook and re-install only Outlook from the Office 2000 CD? Any helpful suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

When I click on my contacts folder it doesn't DISPLAY ANYTHING, when I click on ADDRESS book, it brings up message that contact folder associated connot be found? Help, how do I get my contacts back? USING Outlook 2002

I created a new Outlook profile (due to the OLD one been in EXCESS of the 2GB limit), however when I try to OPEN the old one just for reference to old mails stored there, it asks for a password for the pst file. I never had a password on the file and now cannot access it. Is THER a way to crack the password or any other way to access the file? I'm using Outlook 2002. Help please!Can you not simply press enter?It keeps on saying password incorrect, and then asks for another password.See if the following search results are of any use.

I do not use Outlook, I use Mozilla Thunderbird. MUCH more reliable, if you ask me.

I GOT a new printer, I uninstalled the old SOFTWARE and loaded the new printer software and my computer HANGS at the Microsoft ME logo page and goes no further. I used my boot disc and EVERYTHING goes as it should, then it hangs at the logo again, any suggestions?Try:

1. Before Windows ME loads, press F8
2. Select last known good configuration
3. Press Enter.

I use Microsoft Outlook, windows 2000 OS, and each time I clikc send/recieve I get a box which reads "Operation Failed" no code or error number. Any information anyone has would be greatly appreciated. ThanksDoes it have an error for the incoming server or the outgoing server? Who is rpoviding you with the E-Mail adddress, and who is your ISP? Did it used to work?

[glb]Flame[/glb]This often HAPPENS when your windows for some reason (not sure why) opens outlook more than once, if you open task manager and then click on processes, close all outlook processes and open outlook again (make sure you only click once). This will solve the problem.Hey thanks, yeah because when I would try to SHUT down the compuiter I'd get a MESSGAE saying "please shut dpwn all progrmas before exiting" and ACCORDING to the task manager nothing would be open! I ended up hard SHUTTING down and restarting, everythying's fine now.

I am having trouble GETTING SIMCITY 2000 for DOS to run under Windows 98 (first edition). When I tried it, it WORKED until I clicked on the bulldozer icon. Then my computer locked up and I had to press the RESET button. It this a bug in the DOS version or is it my stupid computer?

I have MusicMatch Jukebox Plus Version 10 which I uninstalled thinking it was the cause of the problem. I have reinstalled it, it has identified all my tracks ok but I have the same sound problem now with that.
Another issue is the Musicmatch burner won't load up at all, it throws up an error and freezes. I have emailed musicmatch about that, I think that if I'm paying for it they should sort it out.
I can't find anything similar to media player to rectify the problem. I'll just keep working on ot until I find it or I'll mail them again.So it also happens to other programs when playing music?

Does it happen when:

1. Playing videogames
2. Playing NON-MP3 data
3. Playing an audio CD/DVD
4. Playing system sounds that programs initiate?Does it happen when:

1. Playing videogames
2. Playing NON-MP3 data
3. Playing an audio CD/DVD
4. Playing system sounds that programs initiate?

1. I don't use my PC for video games so that doesn't matter to me.
2. All other data plays ok
3. I just tried a dvd, that was fine.
4. System sounds work just as they should.
The problem is now with the re-installed musicmatch. It has the same problem with playback as I had with media player. This includes all sources. MP3/CD WHATEVER, exactly the same muffled distant sounds on playback. I want to burn to cd but for some reason meadia player doesn't like my cdr's and musicmatch cd burner crashes, so either way I can't burn to cd.
I am waiting on a reply from musicmatch re: the burner problem then I wil hit them with the playback oneQuote

Your problem has got me perplexed. Are you certain you have the correct drivers installed? The latest drivers obtained from the manufacturers website?

How can you tell if you have an Ethernet Card installed in your computer? I looked inside and saw a card that says 3Dfx and one that gave a part # with the word Asanti. I need to KNOW so I can GET DSL. I saw the other card that I think is the 128 RAM card. raysmith2... look at the back of your tower .........if you see what looks like a place to PLUG in a telephone jack that's a little larger ...thats your ethernet card .

dl65 Thank You--It does, so now I am happy. Will SAVE me a little money now that I don't have to BUY one. Be certain to buy a Network Interface Card with an RJ-45 plug. Not a modem with an RJ-11 plug.

Hi

I have Sierra PrintArtist 4 on my WINDOWS 95 but it has decided to stop printing. I cannot seem to be able to transfer it to my XP tower or laptop and I don't have the original CD.
The people who own it now will not talk about such an old version and all the newer versions will not open gfx files. There were over 14,000 clip files in gfx folders and the newer versions (I have just bought will not open the files.
Is here no way to open them in my 95 and save them somehow so I can transfer them to my XP as perhaps another extension. There are a lot of people out there who would be delighted if someone came up with an answer.


Best wishes


Dave EdwardsWhat file extensions are these?Just to clarify, Dave:

When I START ONE of my other computers it comes up with sone kind of error report and asks if I want to send it, but the main problem the mouse. Let me try to explain. It boots with the cursor in the middle, I can't move it to the left at all, then once I move it to the right it won't go back left at all. So once it gets to the end of the right side that is it. What did I do? lol And can I fix it?Which operating system is this? Is this a wireless mouse? Do you have virus and Spyware protection? Have you scanned for them? Have you tried using another mouse?

I am not sure when it started but, I also can't get rid of the stupid winfix 2005. It keeps d/l itself. Could that be it? I ran an adware remover program and it isn't getting it.

I thought I had one with the router or hub or what ever, cause my boys have to go around it all the time.

I RECENTLY dowloaded the nero ultra program and then I bought a seriel number from the COMPANY so that I was no longer under the TRIAL version. I don't have a "hardcopy" of the program because I downloaded it from their website. I want to have a copy just in case anything happens to my computer I can reinstall it with no problem. I've TRIED to figure it out but each attemp to burn it to a CD doesn't do anything. I've tried to test the cd on another computer to make sure it worked but of course it hasn't. Any help would be great. Thanks.You will need to save a copy of the actual installation program. Be sure to write down the activation code and keep it with the CD.where do I find that? and How do I do that? I really have no idea what to do! I'm not computer smart....

I had been using a trial version of PowerDVD without any problems. The trial version expired so I purchased and INSTALLED the new version (PowerDVD 6). Most of my DVDs play with no problems with one EXCEPTION. The following error message pops up:

"The TV out port of your display card is not working properly. The copy protected disc can not be played when the TV out function is enabled."

My computer has never been connected to a TV so I'm not sure what to think of this since this DVD played normally when I was using the trial version.

Any suggestions? Thanks!I am fairly sure that this is a part of the copy protection SYSTEM and if you can disable the COUNTRY origen by finding a copy of the (PowerDVD_Tweaker) this should help fix your problem.
Ther may also be a point in checking to see if there are UPDATED drivers for you vid cardAnd you can also try Xine a freeware DVD player.

Audacity is a freeware sound recorder in case you need one.

I'm working with Windows 98 and I want to install a Game but my PC tells me it is already INSTALLED.

It is for me. I never encounter spyware or viruses on my computer and have used a number of scanners during my Firefox usage. Adware and virus scanners have become irrelevant. Firewall only used for program control, but that is due to my Router.

You indeed do need extensions. When Firefox is installed, why not create a seperate thread and I will show you some things that will help you better secure your computer.

Stick with ie..........

Thanks Raptor, I'm all set up... well minus the stuff you listed that I didn't find usefull of course

Excellent!

You may need to get used to the manual cookie control, but it'll become your friend real soon if you've got the patience. Tracking cookies will become strangers to you in a matter of minutes.

You can install more extensions by going to:

1. Tools
2. Extensions
3. More extensions

There are literally hundreds of extensions and a lot of them are very interesting.

Do not forget that Mozilla Firefox comes with a built in RSS reader. You may have allready noticed that you can see the latest headlines from BBC.com. You can add website if you like. But the website does need to have an RSS feader URL.

I'm not quite sure what I'd use the RSS feader for but maybe I'll try it.

Did you download the English variant of the browser?

Yes I have the english version, why?

Anyone know any chinese input software that WORK with OPEN Office?

For my CASE, the Open Office only support the WIN XP's chinese input, but unfortunately there are computers in my office that are not running XP.

???I have a weird problem. I recently noticed a new folder was added to my desktop (this occurred as I was attaching a photo to an email--interestingly, the desktop folder is named the same as the the folder from which I was attaching the photos).

For some REASON, I am unable to delete the folder from the desktop. Whenever I try to delete it I get a windows error statement that "it is being used by another person or program. CLOSE any programs that MIGHT be using the FILE and try again". The folder is empty and I don't have any programs running. I'm running XP professional and the email was sent with Outlook 2003. What's the deal?Run the scans 1st and if you COME up clean then KillBox.exe.

im wondering, MSCONFIG-->boot.ini tab is missing
where can i acces and edit this?
is it normal that i dont have this?
Could anyone know and help me with this?

I am unable to start my Webroot SpySweeper, Norton Antivirus Suite 2005 and Microsoft Antispyware. All other applications so far seem ok including Black Ice, Adaware Personal, AVG Free, Spybot and XSoft Anti Spyware. I'm using a Dell D600 LAPTOP with Windows XP SP2.

Webroot Spysweeper reports: An error occured in the application
I have uninstalled and reinstalled this program, however the same fault reoccurs.

Norton Antivirus Suite 2005 reports: Unknown error in Client and Host Security Platform.
Frustratingly I cannot even uninstall this program. Every attempt is met the error screen.

Microsoft Antispyware reports: Critical Error (Error 101)
I reinstalled this as the updated Window Defenter Beta and it's been running smoothly.

I've ran scans with all my other security programs and they REPORT a clean system. I've restarted Windows countless times and in Safe Mode the error screens still come up. Also, I can no longer update Windows. The screens stays on 'Checking for the latest updates for your computer...' an stays there, I quit after an hour. The green progress bar wasstill sweeping.

I'm not sure if this is related but the problems seem to occured after Webroot Spysweeper discovered an removed 44 infected rootfiles(?) (I'm not 100% certain it was rootfiles(?) it REPORTED as I wasn't paying attention.)

Can anyone help please? Many thanks in advance.Norton Antivirus Suite 2005 reports: Unknown error in Client and Host Security Platform.

Have you try that also in safemode?
Correct me if im mistake:
All your AV and A-spyware load and scans at stars-upYes, Safe Mode will not let me uninstall Norton AntiVirus - I have to attampt to uninstall it through the Control Panel in normal mode. As mentioned every unintall attempt has been unsuccessful.

Yes, with the exception of Webroot and Norton, all my other programs work as they should.did you have ccleaner?
f not try to download it and install it (dont run yet)
reboot, go in safemode, run ccleaner
reboot

f not working, try to start recovering your important files
and start cleaning the whole thing in your pc, back to zero

Hello!

GOT a problem: security center told me not to have 2 firewalls running, what's OK. So I had a look what it is and found Norton Internet Worm Protection.

I did not install Norton Antivirus and did not find anything where I can disable this. No entry in the installed software list. No process related to Norton/Symantec.

Hi
Please if SOMEONE can help me I'll be very thankfull to him.I've got 5000 mp3 files so I will reduce and sort but I don't know how is possible to delete a song from a winamp playlist because it's be a better for me to delete a bad song direct from the playlist and I woudn't necessary to go with windows exploler DIRECTLY on it and delete it manually.So if I knew it I'll save a lots of my TIME.Find the folder they are stored in!You should be able to remove files by using the open menu. It works like My Computer or Windows Explorer. I do not know how to directly remove files, I do not use WinAMP.OK
But can you tell me someone some program where I can listen a songs and if I don't like some song I will can to delete it directly from the same program.Quote

Anyone know how to fix this?

ThanksTo go back where you start do system restore if you have WinXP

I have 3 hundred clients in my address book with their birhtdays and anniversayrs etc. Those are full day events. When the clock adjusts for daylight savings it moves them all to another day either 1 ahead or behind and now I am off on what day I need to get stuff out to those clients all because Outlook screws up with time. See my problem?

Using windows xp how do I access the programs that run automatically at start up?
I'm sure I have 10 or 15 little programs that have added themselves to the startup tray.Open those programs and LOOK for a configuration setting that allows you to set it to NOT launch during startup. Another option is to run msconfig (Start, Run, msconfig), select the Startup tab, locate a program and uncheck the box NEXT to it. Click Apply and OK.Thanksdownload winpatrol to make things EASIER, this program does the job
Thanks guys, this should get me started in the RIGHT direction.
What is absolutely MUST HAVE on startup?Here are two good sources of info on processes you might see running when you open Windows Task MANAGER: WinTasks Process Library, and Task List Programs - AnswersThatWork's famous Database of .... They explain what the process does and give guidance on whether the process can safely be disabled, etc.Quote
