Hello. I have a bunch of icons showing up each time I start windows, and they are making me nervous. I like to try new programs of all kind, but it appears that some of them are not reliable plus, there are some very suspicious. Anyway, how can I make “this and this” icon disappear from msconfig uility? I heard I can do that. Thanks in advance.

It is easy. Type msconfig from the run dialog box, and when it opens, depending on version of windows you have, it is the last or the one before the last tab to choose. When you have found that, just deselect the desired ones and reboot. Click on “don’t show this message when windows start”, and you’re done.
