How to stop Quickset from loading at startup?

Question

Hi, Just a minor irritation.  I have a Vostro 1400 with Quickset v8.3.17.  Strangely, if Quickset loads at startup it (the Fn keys) doesn't work.  However, if I load Quickset after boot up, it works fine! My work-around is to close and restart Quickset, but how can I permanently prevent it from starting at boot up?   It is not in the Startup folder.  I have edited msconfig, but as soon as I launch Quickset, it puts itself back in the startup tab of msconfig!   I can't find any way to stop it - short of uninstalling - but I like the Fn-f10 hotkey to open the CD drive (that's all I use Quickset for).    Alternatively, is there a freeware program to eject the CD drive that anyone can recommend?   Cheers,   BK

Thanks.  I looked at that, but decided on Hotkey Helper (http://www.tucows.com/preview/352676). It's working, but I would like to find a real solution - just because!!! Cheers, BK
