I have just had to upgrade from Windows ME > XP Home. Had a few problems
with virus and McAffee, all seems settled now, but getting this annoying
message when I launch CONTROL PANEL:
Only visible fault is when I go to click on CONTROL PANEL!!!

I've stupidly somehow set up NET password (profile) on my upgraded PC with a
login that I don't want it to use.
So when MSN messenger launches it says I've logged out and need to re-log in
again.

There are 30 exe's running.....are they slowing down my
system? If they are, how can I stop them from opening at
startup????

I use the HIDE TASK BAR feature to keep it off screen til I want it.  It
usually works fine. Occasionally, however, it decides to pop up and stay up.
Reclicking the feature off, then on again, is just a temporary fix - within
minutes if not moments, it pops up again.
