Demetri
To see and control absolutely all programs that run under WIN95 or 98, get
the PC Magazine utility as described. You can temporarily or permanently
disable the running of any of them with this super program.
More than just Demetri can benefit from this program. Everyone should look
at this one.

PLATFORMS: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4
DESCRIPTION: When Windows starts up, it automatically launches a number of
programs for you. Some of these come from the Startup folder. Windows also
looks in six other locations for files that should be launched at startup.
Startup Cop helps you handle problems with programs that are automatically
launched at startup by listing them and letting you disable, enable, or
delete them. You can save the list of programs that are currently enabled or
disabled as a profile that can be restored at a later time.
p.s. There's another neat utility that will show you all the run statements
located in the registry that result in programs loading in Windows and
lurking in the background. It is called SmartStart and is from Daedalus
Software. You can search for it on the web. I believe it is freeware but I'm
not sure.
