Rick, thanks it is not in the list and so far it has not popped up. I did
uncheck it in msconfig as I did before. It popped up after it checked for an
update. I will look at the preferences as you suggested.

Hi Lenny,
In Windows 7, go to the start menu, and up arrow to All Programs and hit
enter to open it.
Next, up arrow once or twice, then press the letter S until you come to
Startup, and press enter to open it.
I have never had a shortcut for Dropbox in this folder which in itself
doesn't mean anything, but if you find one here,
simply select it, then press the applications key or Shift +F10 to open the
context menu, and choose delete and press enter.
Alternatively, you can start Dropbox, and then press enter on it's icon in
the system tray, and choose preferences from the resulting menu.
When the preferences dialogue opens, you should be able to tab to the option
to start Dropbox
when the computer starts, and uncheck the box.
HTH,
Rick Justice
Tomorrow's another day, another way!
and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved!

David, using win 7 32 bit. In previous versions I had no problem finding the
start menu item list. After an hour or so I surrender.

Drop box traditionally puts an entry in your startup folder on the start
menu. If you can navigate to that location all you would need to do is
delete the shortcut. If you need further directions get back along with the
version of windows you are currently running.

Some time back I installed drop box. I am trying to get it to automatically
starting. I used msconfig and removed it from the start up tab. A few days
later it is back. I have done this several times and do not see anywhere
that reinstalls it. I did not want to totally remove it in case there is a
time when I may want to use it.
