How to stop OE from auto starting after SP2?

[Julius Mong]

Hi, after installing SP2 my Outlook Express starts automatically whenever XP
boots up... is there a way to disable that I've tried looking at the
registry and startup folder with no luck...

Thanks,

Jules

If you have used msconfig and the registry and can't find an entry for
OE, then something else must be starting that is calling OE. What does
a scan with a current antivirus program (meaning a version not earlier
than 2002 and using updated virus definitions) show?
