Jill, I used spyware-guard and it must work automatically and will start when you are rebooting. You must see it in the system tray and click on the application key and arrow up/down and find some settings and options. I hope this helps Moti ----- Original Message ----- From: Jillian Grant To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, May 04, 2005 12:45 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] starting spywear guard from desktop Hi. I've got Spyware Guard on my computer, but sometimes I forget to start it up. Recently, it seems I've been hit by something that's been blocking my access to my isp. So I'm wondering whether I can set it to start up automatically when my computer has booted up. Using Win 98SE and JFW 4.5. Thanks. jill.
