Windows Forum / Windows XP / New Users / February 2006Start files
I have a young user who only plays children's games online. Whenever I switch user to her some programs open that she can't use. Can someone please tell me the file path to the startup files so I can delete them. I have looked a few places where search and common sense sends me but I cannot find them in XP. Thanks SG Hi Shakey, Please see http://rickrogers.org/xpsware.htm  SignatureBest of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org >I have a young user who only plays children's games online.

Bottom line is as soon as her preferences come up so does Yahoo IM sign in window which I do not want up. Used to be easy in 98 to set preferences.

You should simply be able to disable it from the startup tab of msconfig (click start/run and type it in). Then it should not start in her account, but you can still run it in yours.
