For some reason, ever since I used Airport Express Assistant a week ago, that application shows up whenever I've logged into my iBook?

Unlike Windows where there's a chance to select the startup apps, I don't know why AE keeps showing up.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Check in the System Preferences --> Accounts --> Startup Items

If the app that keeps opening is in there, delete it from the list (don't just uncheck it, but highlight it and it the Delete key or the "-" button at the bottom of the list).

Do you have that application under your "StartUp Items"?

System Preferences > Accounts > Your Account > Startup Items

Or if it's there any not running, remove it from your dock by dragging the icon to the desktop and the poof will show.
