You can always right-click on it after startup and choose "Exit". >> How do I prevent it from loading entirely at startup? > >Somewhere, you've got a registry entry or startup script referring to "tomcat?w.exe //MS//" (where the ? is Tomcat base >level - which you didn't tell us). Delete the registry entry or startup script. If you're not using Tomcat, then just uninstall it. Otherwise, you'll need to remove it using the registry editor. The location is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Delete the ApacheTomcatMonitor value. Note: all traditional caveats and warnings about messin' with the Windows registry apply.
