Billminder problems in 2008 minerva 05-22-2008

I'm running Quicken deluxe 2008, R 7, on a Windows Professional 2000
machine. Billminder starts whenever I start up the computer, despite
the fact that I have it turned off in Start Menu > Programs > Quicken
2008 > Billminder > Options. I have also turned off all alerts. In
fact, I have never put any scheduled payments or alerts or anything
like it into the program. How do I get the bloody thing to stop
coming up whenever I start my machine? Can I edit my boot file
somehow?

Thx -- M9

You can try this:

[Windows Task Bar] Start > Run > (key "msconfig") > OK >
Startup

Make sure there is no checkmark alongside "Billminder".

Thanks John -- it worked. Unfortunately, it also turned off the other
start-up tasks I have assigned.... any ideas on a work-around for
that?
