How to Stop Application Starting on Terminal Server Login

I have an application which a user is running on their server. It's set to
load in the startup group for the administrator. I was told this is the way
it has to be.

The problem is that when a remote user logs in on terminal server as an
administrator my application starts up again. I asked the admin person if it
could just be started when the server loads and not when every admin user
logs in over terminal server but I was told no.

Is this really true? Or is there a way to restrict applications from
starting when terminal server starts a session?

Thanks for any information...

Mark
