start > run > msconfig - look in the start up tab

If you dont see it there I think you can right click the tray icon and go to preferences to turn off the icon in the tray, if thats whats bothering you.

You can download a neat little applet that has basically the same functionality as msconfig>startup here.... Oh yeah, it's called Startup CPL...

Win 2k, to the best of my knowledge does not have msconfig..You can get a copy and it will work with Win2k..I'm not sure where you would get a copy...Give startup CPL a try...It's free.......

Yeah, Win2K doesn't have msconfig. If you are needing to curb other program's habits from starting up with Windows, then go ahead and install something like Startup CPL, but, if you are just wanting QuickTime program gone from startup, "Right-click" -> Preferences and then change the settings. They are not like Windows Messenger, where you have to tell it a gazillion times to not start and then it finally just stops working.
