Hi jdwssll,

I don't have that option on the Browsers tab , but thanks for replying.

P.S. - The easy fix seems to be available only to users of Pro or CE. I'm using SE. I should have printed out the instructions I used the first time around, I guess.

Richard,

This should do the trick. Just substitute AdSubtract for ZoneAlarm.

Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java.

Want to make a hyperlink in your post, want to add a graphic or sound file, need to troubleshoot a non-working Java applet, want to build an attractive signature? These capabilities can be yours if you visit Denny's DellT@lk Tutorials. For help in deciding what can be eliminated from your Startup list, take a look here. Want to get rid of Network Neighborhood, change your Registered Owner name? Check out the little utilities at Delltalk Tweekz. Ready to sign up for Web server space? Want to learn FTP? Visit Web Presence for Beginners. For new users (or veterans who would like to help a new user), a number of basic Windows tasks are illustrated in Denny's Tutorial Viewlets.

Hi Denny,

That did the trick, alright, though I had to get there via Start>Search>For Files & Folders, and entering adsubtract.

When I tried C:\Windows\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp the only thing in that folder was a shortcut for ZoneAlarm, even though I have a couple of other things that start when I turn on the PC (InoculateIt, and Pop-Up Stopper).

I also noticed that the only thing listed under Start>Programs>StartUp is AdSubtract. Even though the other programs aren't listed there, they still start automatically. Is there any compelling reason to move them to the StartUp folder if they're starting OK from where they are now? If so, how do I manage that?

Thanks for the help. It has been printed and filed this time. (I'm a hard-copy guy at heart.)
