so, this laptop has been running vista ulti since I got it... and I've had the side bar disabled since then. This past two weeks, apparently vista has decided it REALLY REALLLY wants the side bar there again. No matter what I do, it comes back. I've unchecked the box saying display at start up, over and over.. I've used msconfig.. I've opened and closed and applied changes over and over..
Yet often in the middle of just going about my biz.. the little icon appears in my taskbar by itself.. and when I click on the properties, the box is checked again to say it will open at start up.
It has re opened itself three times this morning, without me restarting my computer once.

I just want it to stop.
