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 |

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. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "ECLiPSE 2002" wrote in message ...

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. -- Gary S.

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. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm |

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. -- Gary S.

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. ...Rex..
