graywolf ========= You know, now that I think about it, that may not be the way to disable Windows updates. I am sure someone else will pipe up if it isn't. (Or if they don't email me and I will look around and find it -- if it's not there I sort of know where it might be). However, still hold onto that. That is the way to get other things out of your startup tray and to disable other automatic update warnings. I mean it seems every time I add a new program, okay not EVERY time but almost, they add automatic update warnings. :-) It is also the way, if you know what you are doing, to get rid of some processes that run in the background that don't absolutely need to (not all in that list load in the tray and/or visible in the startup tray, but do load in memory at start up). There are other ways to track down background processes that don't need to be running all the time. But that is the easiest and most accessible one to users. I trim startup on a periodic basis. I don't like people adding things to startup. I admit I am a Windows tweaker. :-) It's just I don't always remember my tweaks after I have done them. Marnie aka Doe
