Hi, I recently bought a new computer, it has Windows XP on it.

Heres the problem: I have ICQ/MSN/Kazaa all installed on the computer. But when I boot into XP they all automatically load at the same time(which makes for a little wait while the computer stuffs around with it all)....is there a utility in XP that I can stop this with? If not, is there a utility i can download somewhere?

Thanks~!

Yes, you can use the microsoft system configuration utility that previous versions of 98/ME also had ( msconfig ). Simply type that in the run box, when it opens go to the startup tab, and de-select the programs you do not want to run at startup. http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/smile.gif
