Presuming you are using Windows 9x, then look in the C:\windoes\Start
Menu\Startup folder (I think that's what it's called -- I am using XP and
haven't used Win9x to fool around with in several years. There may be a
short cut located in that folder, and if so, just delete it. The program
will stay on the disk, only the short cut will be gone.
