Login Items-Crash When Removing

[SweetDoug]

I've got some login items that who-knows-where-I-got'em, but I do and I can't get rid of them.

Their item and kind are \\\\\\\\\\\\\\ and unknown. When I mouse over them to see their resident folder, I get a yellow sticky of \\\\\\\\\\\ ad nauseum.

And when I try to remove them, El-KaBong. A soft restart back to the login window.

Tried just an A&I of the system, hoping it would fix the problem, but no such luck.

Other than that, it runs just fine. Is this an issue?

G5, Dual 2.3, 10.4.11

Thanks guys,

I can't recall whether this boots your computer or logs in to your user account without launching login items, but try restarting and / or logging in while holding down the SHIFT key. This should disable login items if I remember correctly – which should allow you to delete them through the appropriate pane in System Preferences.

If this doesn't work, try installing Tinkertool, which also allows for adding/removing/reordering the launching of login items.
