I went to "MSCONFIG" and a program that needs to be there to operate properly, is not there. I don't see a way to add a program.
I went to services.msc. And the program is listed as STARTED and under startup item, it says AUTOMATIC.
So how do I get it into "MSCONFIG" on the startup menu ??

2012-05-10T10:45:54+00:00 The problem is Norton's installer, and I have no intention of geting rid of Norton.
I can live with the program scanning every file in my startup menu for security.
It just slows down the startup. I was only hoping to find a way to fix it. Obviously not.
AGAIN, my computer runs awesome. I definately prefer Windows 7 over Vista anyday.

Once you get rid of Norton, we may be able to assist - until then all I can say is 'good luck - you'll need it'.
