...auto running?


Do you mean "when Windows starts"?

If so, you can just delete some values from the Registry.

Example (HKCU)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"Yahoo! Pager"=-

Example (HKLM)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"QuickTime Task"=-

However, you may want to have a look at the "Startup" folder, too.

Like said, go to keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, look for values you don't want, like "Java Updater Scheduler" or something, and make a reg file that will delete the corresponding entries.
