Hi Roy,
There's a program called "Msconfig" that you can use to stop things.
If you hit start button r for run and then, msconfig, you'll get into it.
If you press control-tab, you get various pages, one is applications and you
can go down a list and see which ones are running. If you find Yahoo is
running, uncheck it and tab to apply then close. You'll be asked to
restart.
You may have to do it from your wife's account.
There's also a prog called startup inspector that you can download free and
stop things. don't have link at minute.

Subject: [jaws-uk] Stopping programs running at startup
Hi there
I am running Windows XP and JAWS 7. There are two login accounts on my PC.
When my wife logs into her account, YahooMessanger starts up
automatically, and asks for a login account and password. All I want to do
is stop YahooMessanger running at start-up, on this account. I've looked
in ControlPanel and can't seem to find anywhere to alter what starts up.
Any help/advice would be very useful. Thanks in advance.
Cheers
Roy
