    Stupid KaZaA

    I have a strange thing with KaZaA Lite:
    Everytime a user logs on onto my machine (my brother, my sister or me) it opens explorer and shows te content of the Kazaa directory. Very anoying! Has someone else encountered it before? And so, it it a Kazaa problem or a Windows problem?


    And a second question: How can I the opening of the MSN Today page everytime I start MSN Messenger 5?

    Thanx

    MK

    Have you checked your startup folder? And the startup list in msconfig?

    I think you can turn off the Startup page of MSN 5 somewhere in the options. Have a look.

    kazaa puts a shortcut to your download folder in the program files. if you have a shortcut to that in your startup dir also, that could be the problem.

    No, you have to do it all by hand in regedit.

    (Just a heads-up)

    just a tidbit: you can copty the msconfig.exe file from a xp installation to a 2000 installation and it will work fine.

    No, go ahead; make it all skinnable and translucent!

    I have to admit, a translucent msconfig would be a huge turnon.
