I don't want it opening when I start the machine.

Go to the Start Menu folder and if its there, delete it. Next time it won't open at startup.

This is for Windows XP Home Edition:
1. In Windows Explorer, on your C drive, look for a folder called "Start Menu."

2. Open it, and you should find a folder called "Programs."

3. Open that folder, and you should find a folder called "Startup."

4. Open that, and delete the shortcut.
