I've Googled this and get every direction except the right one. We're running Win 7 Home Premium. There are a couple of programs that open up every time we reboot and I don't want them popping up on the screen. Input appreciated.

Might be a virus problem or not. Follow this link first. I what you mean is startup items and not startup menu. When you reboot you see a few programs startup automatically right? See whether the below link help. You might want to do a malware scan first. Good luck
