Controlling Startup Programs in XP
Is there a method to control what programs run on startup? More specifically, say one time you wanted to start with everything running, like anti-virus, firewall, etc... but the next time you start, can you not run all that stuff? Like maybe a profile / user for: Web surfing, another for gaming, another for video editing, etc..
??? TIA TwoRails |

That controls everything for each boot. I'm trying to figure out how to Log Off then log back in, but with different startup programs running.... Sorry... I should have been more clear.

No, it's my fault. You were clear, I just thought the MSconfig settings were different for each account. I guess not

it may be posable to make diffrent accounts for this then edit the run sections of the regerstry ie h key currunt user run and h key locall machean run and so on i wood think you nead to stop all the run and run once in locall machean then add the programs in currant user a good idear is to back up the reg to the root of the c drive so if it goes wrong you can use the recovery concall to restore it
