There is no MSconfig application w/ win2k, however there is a startup folder associated with each user/profile, as well as the services applet in controlpanel>administrative tools.

Good luck...

Some programs just started without listed in the start up folder, like Yahoo messenger. So your solution don't really help.

That's where "Services" comes in, you can manage the startup state of services in this applett.
