			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="instant preserve noshading itiltnone alignright" src="http://static.zooomr.com/images/4114861_5a6fdc4f27_m.jpg"/>While looking into why my laptop was taking so long to startup windows, I noticed a program, <code>GoogleUpdate.exe</code>, running. I wasn&#8217;t too concerned because I use <a href="http://desktop.google.com/">GoogleDesktop</a>, but since I had disabled that at startup I started wondering why it was still there.</p>
<p>Checking the usual places, I fired up <code>msconfig</code> to see if it was listed anywhere and nothing. Looked in <code>services.msc</code>, nothing there either.</p>
<p>So after a quick search, I ran across this <a href="http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/3398/how-to-remove-or-disable-googleupdateexe-in-xp-vista/">page</a> which shows that <code>GoogleUpdate.exe</code> gets run as a scheduled task which runs at user login. This is also how Apple installs their product updater. This means that this is another way that software can be set to run at startup, even though it isn&#8217;t in any of the normal startup locations.</p>

<h4>The Gadgeteer</h4>
<p>14% Elegant,  69% Technological,  13% Historical,  56% Adventurous and  40% Playful!</p>
<p style="text-align:center"><img src="http://cdn.okcimg.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/0x0/0x0/0/6625429330628004210.jpeg" width="511" height="460" /></p>
<div>
<p>You are the Gadgeteer, the embodiment of steampunk technology.  Ironically, many of the things that most define your style are probably too large to easily carry about, but given the opportunity you would prefer to be seen surrounded by boiler engines, gear-driven calculators, and incredible automata.  Of all the steampunk fashion styles, you place the greatest emphasis on technological accessories, and you are the most likely to create elaborate gadgets that are as much a part of your outfit as your clothes.  You probably have goggles, but unlike most people you consider them to be for more than decoration.  Whereas most people might look odd carrying a satchel of tools around, for  you they may well be essential.  Above all, you remind everyone that what sets the genre apart from Victoriana is simply the level of technology.</p>

<p>Well, at least it will be nice to have a fresh install without all the cruft that accumulates over time.</p>
<p>Now if only Media player would finish&#8230;.</p>
