Someone may have already offered this, but here goes.
I have Book Port installed on my PC. I checked in the Startup menu under the
Start menu. It has BookPort Launcher in there.
If you delete the entry in the StartUp menu, this should keep it from
launching at start up. There is another entry in the Start menu but outside
the Start Up menu if you ever need to launch it manually.
Hope this helps.
Tom
