How do I stop processes like GoogleUpdater.exe and Ituneshelper.exe starting when I turn my computer on?

Start > then run the program called msconfig and go to startup and uncheck the boxes.

Start > and run a program called msconfig go to the startup section, untick the programs you don't wish to start and apply. :P

If you use CCleaner go on Tools then Startup then select which you want to disable or delete.

Isn't there a folder in "Programs" called "Startup?" Might be worth looking through that, I think that's how I stopped programs on someone elses laptop, but not too sure. Worth a shot :)

The programs are ones that actually pop up when you start computer i'm sure, i.e. if i added notepad to it, notepad would pop up when i start computer, same as msn etc. i don't think it'll deal with itunes etc in there :P
