It is part of Win XP that can`t be taken out.
BUT you can stop it from logging in automatically: In the program, go to the Tools menu, and select Options.
If you`re not using it in English, Third Menu from the left, bottom option.
Deselect "Run this program when Windows Starts", press OK.
It will now only run when you tell it to [img]smile.gif[/img]

Lennoncook does the command "msconfig" work at the run prompt in XP. If so it could be disabled from there too !

Megabot, I won't ask you again to watch your language.. you need to chill dude.. you can use a less... explicit word.
