unwanted program appearing during start-up

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

msconfig. should work. You can also try this.

Open up the start menu and go to "Set Program Access and Defaults". Choose
"Custom" and then you can set which program you want to be used.

Also: Go to the 'Start' icon and right-click, then choose explore all users.
This way you can track down any left over files and get rid of them. You
should find a folder named 'musicmatch', that could be the culprit. Just
don't accidentally erase your music if its in the Musicmatch folder!

Hi

Have a look in msconfig>startup to see if that folder is referenced there.
If so, uncheck it and then reboot your system.
