Re the Start Menu - Startup cleaning, what I do is organize the Start menu the way I want it, and back it up by placing a copy of the Start Menu folder found in Windows in wherever I keep my backups (a RW-CD). The Startup found in the Start Menu I keep empty leaving opening any program after booting up the comuter to my discretion. For programs that I use often (Note, keep ONLY shortcuts in the Start Menu; the executable files would be in C:\Program Files); to those shortcuts I assign hot keys (see shortcut's properties line) so an easy Ctrl-Alt-Hotkey open up whatever. My question is what causes some of the responses to the list to have an =20 at the end of each line; I never saw that before.
