Hello,
I downloaded an app that has attached itself to my startup and I would like to remove it so I can open it only when needed. How do I do this please??

If you look in the Preferences for that app, you should have the "Open at Startup" option, if so, uncheck it.

Hopefully that helped.:)

If I go a day without learning something new...I feel it wasn't a very good day (I can't remember the last time this has happened)!:)

That's either a very good thing...or my memory isn't as good as it used to be!;)
