USING TASK SCHEDULER TO OPEN PROGRAMS AUTOMATICALLY

Perhaps you like to start up Windows with the same program every time you boot up your computer. (You always like to surf the internet, perhaps, or open up your email.) You can use the Windows 98 Task Scheduler to cause this to happen. Begin by clicking on the Start button, then on Programs, next Accessories, then System Tools, and finally Scheduled Tasks. Click on the Add Scheduled Task icon. Read what it says, then click on the button for Next and browse for the application you want to open. Click the Next button and choose When My Computer Starts. Finally, click Next, and Finish.
