Hi Scott,

Depends on where they are loading from. Start with these three registry
keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg

For anything you can't locate, start/run msinfo32. Expand the software
environment and click on the startup programs. This should tell you where
the software is loading from.
