I don't want to sound like a salesman for this thing, but if you've got startup problems with ANY Windoze, go to winpatrol.com and get one of the slickest add-ons ever!
Lets you stop all sorts of nastinesses from creeping in, whether they come from MS or other.

Nice, thanks for the tip. Since it is free, you can hardly be a salesman.Originally Posted by Paratima
You're quite welcome! It's a neat little package. Been using it for a couple of years on all my Windoze boxen and never had a glitch from it yet.
Yeah, it creates one more "Mother, may I?" when you install anything that sets up to run automatically or in the background, but at least you have a choice.

Microsoft has given another lease of life to Windows XP only days before PC makers have to stop selling it.
Windows XP reaches its end of life on 30 June but Microsoft has now said it can continue being sold until June 2010 but only on cheap desktops.
The decision follows one made in April to extend the life of XP on low cost laptops until the same date.
It comes as Dell, HP and Lenovo exploit loopholes in Microsoft's licensing terms to keep putting XP on machines.
I guess from here on out, Linux will be my default OS then.
damn XP, save PPC and OS X ))
