openoffice at startup

OpenOffice starts when I start up Linux. Anyone knows how to stop it from doing so?
Im running RH9

Thanks!

KDE automatically starts applications that were open when you shut down. I'm not sure about Gnome. Anyway, just make sure to exit Openoffice before you shut down.

I have closed OpenOffice on the "menu list" at the bottom before shutting down..I also tried to close it in "file, quit".. but it still starts up! Is it still running somewhere in the background?

maybe it has been added to ur startup session? look fior sessions in ur menu, and see if it is included there.

I dont have a startup session in my menu. and nothing else that i can see that makes OpenOffice start after rebooting.. hmm?

the session option used to be under "extra" ... "something" (system xxx?)"

anyway (this might sound stupid, but ...), is there any option in the openoffice toolset which sets it to run at startup? (edit--preferences...?)
