Well, I'll try again, Scott.   ;-)

I would thik that SOMEwhere in either the system.ini or the win.ini files
there should be something that pertains to this.  I would say poke around
and look for anything that is related to defaults for the Windows setup and
loading upon initialization.  I'll look in mine and let you know if anything
pops into my mind...   or pops out.
