Default Help with Task Scheduler utility

I have Win 98SE and try as I may I cannot seem to remove the icon for
Task Scheduler from starting when WIndows is started. I have WIndows
critical update notification in Start Up and wonder if that is why the
Task Scheduler shows up in the system tray.



I have the following questions:

I do not seem to be getting critical update notifications despite the
fact that it is activated in the Task Scheduler

If I successfully remove Task Scheduler from the system tray will
Windows critical update notification still function?

Any input would be apprecaited,

Frank

Yes, that's why.

When the task scheduler icon returns after the task scheduler is turned off,
that is because of the critical update notification. I have not used W98
for quite a while--are there any critical updates being made? There might
not be any reason to have critical updates enabled.

There was a Win98 Critical Update just last Tuesday. Whether there is a
Win98 version posted yet or not, I can't say, but one is promised.

It seems to be there all right...

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,

Yes, it is.

Is that a question?

I don't believe you *can* successfully remove it if Critical Update Notification is
installed. Why not just uninstall the Update Notification via Add\Remove Programs,
and manually check for updates once a month....they are released the first Tuesday
of the month, IIRC.

Get rid of IE, get Mozilla or Opera or whatever; problems will
disappear the less you use micro products.

Other than the fact that what you say is pure BS, what in blazes does IE
have to do with Task Scheduler and Critical Updates Notification?

Hey, if "problems will disappear the less you use micro products", why
don't you just get something from Apple (so your world will be limited
to simple tasks you *might* be able to handle), or dive into the *nix
world, and spend the rest of your years just getting the OS to function
at all, and eschew MS altogether? Put your money where your mouth is and
leave those of us who *know* that Windows is a superior product for the
purpose (when all factors are considered) get on with our business.

We all have to deal with what we have and what we have access to,
and its global that IE attracts *bugs*.
Since my first use of a different browser I noticed a huge drop in
*problems*, if this werent true you wouldnt find people daily switching over
to non micro
products for browsing & etc.
Yeah, sure, I'll leave *things* to those who know, but the world I know is
one where the more you know the less you know.
