installed programs not loading

Since I downloaded and installed the last batch of MS patches, No
program I've installed after that will load on startup. They will not
show up in my system tray or in Msconfig. These are programs I want to
start up. Anyone else having this problem?

Windows version? Recent updates you installed? Apps you've installed after
updating?

In looking further, it appears that my CounterSpy program has blocked some of
the programs I installed from loading. I have sent an e-mail to the company
because it will not let me change the setting to let the programs run, even
though the option is there. Thanks for the quick response.

YW & thanks for posting back. Please let us know the outcome. There are
many CounterSpy users here. (Have you checked Sunbelt's support forums?)
