Optional Netware client on Windows

Is there a way to configure the Netware 4.83 client for Windows to be optional? I only need occasional Netware access & connectivity, so I would like the Netware logon to be optional or disabled on most of my startups of Windows. Right now, startup is cumbersome since all the Netware info must be cleared out of the logon dialog to get to Windows.

You can disable Autologon with an entry in the windows registry. Search the novell support knowledge base for Autologon, and you can find the key that needs to be added (I know the entry for 95/98/ME, but not for NT/2000).

I just check mark the "Workstation Only" box on the Netware login screen. Later!

I want this too. I would like it to start up for example in the system tray and if I need it I can click on it and login. However, most of the time I won't use it and the workstation only option is kinda a pain. Plus, I really just plain don't like netware. Anyway, is there a way that the service can be installed without being the default startup login option? Thanks.
