How do I prevent Winamp agent from running automatically when I start my computer. I know how to disable it after its started but I can't find how to remove it from the preferences in Winamp or from the start menu in windows.

No joy. It's already not checked.

You don't have Winamp2 installed on your system as well do you?, each version of WA has it's own agent program, so you might have disabled the WA3 one, but the WA2 one is still running.

Right click on the agent icon and choose "disable winamp agent"
