Right. And not all programs start from the startup folder. If I'm not
mistaken, ZoneAlarm, which he particularly asked about, does not.

Gerald, why does it matter? ZoneAlarm doesn't need to start before you
check your mail. That's not the area where a firewall protects you.

Now that you mention it, you're right. Thanks.


You're welcome. Glad to help.

The programs in the Startup folder are usually in alphabetical order and
that's how they start. Just rename the programs shortcut so that the order
you want starts: 01 Program.exe, 02 program.exe, etc.

How do I set the boot order so that my firewall (Zonealarm) starts before
my mail checker.
