Hi,
I am running Windows xp home on my computer which is connected to an
ADSL line. Whenever i re-boot my computer the last icon to appear in
the system tray is my firewall. How can i make it so the firewall loads
first. Any help would be apreciated.Thanks.

You would have to write a batch file to set up an order in which the
applications are started. Write the command-lines for the applications
to the batch file and then remove the programs from the startup
settings. Create a shortcut to the batch file in the STARTUP subfolder
of the Start Menu.
