Most of this shit runs from the Registry..... might not be such a hot idea to go screwing with that.... unless you make a backup of it first. Others probably run from the Startup folder (Start|Programs|Startup), just delete the shortcut from that folder and it's gone, well, won't run on startup anymore anyway.
Oh, goaty, poproxy is the Norton AntiVirus email scanner. Killing everything but Explorer and systray (and let's be honest, even systray can go but doesn't have to) will never cause Windows to quit functioning. Win9x doesn't even let you kill the actual core stuff that runs it, Explorer is just the GUI.
And for my next trick, anyone wanna know how to edit explorer.exe to change the text on the Start button? I've done it! :bouncer:
