Have you looked in its options (untick "run on start up")
What about Start>Run>msconfig>startup?
No, it's not a secret, just not relevant. I don't want to know about this program
specifically, or start an off-topic discussion about how good/bad it is, or how I
should be using something else! :-)
I just want to know how a program (any program) can start itself up *without*
appearing in any of the usual places. I am assuming I have missed one of the ways a
program can start itself up at windows startup.
Have you looked in its options (untick "run on start up")Yes, and it is NOT ticked to run at startup or to automatically update itself. If
it was, then surly it (or its updater prog) should appear in my "startup folder" or
in one of the usual registry "run" keys, and would also appear in msconfig\startup.
It does not.
