Prevent programs from starting on other user's desktop

I recently purchased a Blackberry Cell phone and loaded the DeskTop Manager

program that enables me to sync it to my Outlook data. When other users on my

computer log on, the Desk Top Manager loads at start up. It takes several

munutes to load and is an annoyance to them. I have administrator

priveledges. How can I prevent the program from starting when the other users

log on?

Go to your Start menu and check the contents of the Startup folder. Is there a

shortcut for the DeskTop Manager there? If so, do the following.

 

On your Start menu, right click on Startup and select Open All Users from the

menu.

Right click again except this time select Open.

 

You should now have two folders open. Move the shortcut from the C:\Documents

and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup folder into the Startup

folder for your account.

 

Good luck

Sorry, Kelly, but I am unable to discuss any topic that's even remotely

connected with a certain football team from NYC :)

 

Seriously, if he keeps his mouth shut he'll help take some of the pressure off

of Colston and Bush. The best case scenario for Saints fans would be if he plays

this season with the same "I'll show them" attitude that Randy Moss displayed

last year for the Patriots.

 

The biggest question with the Saints is going to be their defense. Your team has

a fairly easy schedule and plays in a relatively weak division. They should

rebound from last year's disappointing results and get back to the playoffs.
