Aol

I have win 98se and when ever i start up aol comes on how do i get rid it. i tried deleted it from startup and disabled startup, and in the system configure startup. but it still can;t get rid of it.

 

Hi Barry,

Try going to Start>Find>Files and Folders

Search C drive for aol and delete them. Just make sure its not associated with a program you need before you delete.

 

Thanks but i don't want to get rid of aol just when i start up my computer.

 

Click on Start>Run. Type msconfig in the box and click ok. When msconfig opens click on the startup tab. This is a list of all the programs that start when you start your computer. Look for Aol and click to uncheck it. Ok your way out. Restart your computer.

 

Aol in a few cases is started from the Task Scheduler [Mstask.Exe]. If there, disable it there. If you do not have anything scheduled to be run automatically at a certain time and date, go to Advanced\Stop Using Task Scheduler
