I'm assuming the game itself is actually opening up. To fix this
There's a few solutions:
1. Start Menu:
a. Activate the Start button
b. then go to All Programs,
c. Then go to Startup.
d. Right-click the game in the Startup folder
e. Select Delete to remove it from the Startup folder.
2. MSCONFIG Settings:
a. Hold the Windows key and press R to open the Run window.
b. Type "msconfig" and press "Enter".
c. Click the "Startup" tab.
d. Uncheck any startup program you don't want to run during startup.
e. Click "OK".
You can then choose to restart your computer immediately or later.
3. The Program Itself:
a. Either you or your youngin' open the program you wish to disable
from running at startup.
b/ Look for its Options or Preferences.
c. Browse through these options for an option to "Run Program at
Startup." Disable it.

My son has been on my user account and now I have a game that comes up
everytime I turn the computer on.and I assume, then, that it is on the
startup menue.I have tried looking it up in Windows Help, but no joy.Can
anyone tell me how I can get rid of this.I'm having to turn it off, EVERY
time I turn on my machine.Any help would probably shorten his grounding
time..
Thanks
Kimberly
