Programs running after restart
« on: January 09, 2005, 11:24:00 AM »
I have Windows ME
My computer is runnung very slow as the memory is being sapped up by open programs that open automatically even after restart
I also have NOrton Antivirus
I am not sure what some of the programs are
Sush as:
ccap
save
ottask
findfast
viewmgr
osa
directcd
rundll
rundll32
rundll32 again
tgcmd
motmon
osd
Hpztsb02

Does anyone know how to get these to stop opening and/or are there some programs that are needed.

I know that they are draining my memory and some may be games may be from games downloaded

Thank you for your help

This Site will explain what most of them mean and give recommendations:

You can then select star, run; type msconfig, select the start up tab and disable the relevant check box.
