hey all, although I haven't looked at her computer I thought I'd ask ya'lls opinion first. My sister can't seem to get rid of the yahoo instant messenger. Everytime she starts her computer it pops up in the taskbar area (far right side). Apparently it loads on startup everytime. Any ideas on how to stop this? She has a dell I think a 2400, maybe.
