How do I stop MS Office OneNote 2003 from launching at start up?

[Ed]

The application launches at start up. I don't want it to, but there doesn't
seem to be an option setting that would only start it when I launch it
manually.

Do you mean the full application or the Notification Area icon?

If the latter, it's an either-or setting. The idea is that by having that
helper application always in the NA, you always have access to be able to
create a quick Side Note, or other audio/screen clipping.

To disable it, go to Tools | Options | Other and uncheck the "Place OneNote
icon in notification area of the taskbar".

Thank you Erik:

However, I do mean the application, not the icon.

Have you checked the various startup locations for your profile and
computer for the OneNote icon?

Start with the Startup folder under Start Menu | All Programs | Startup.
If the OneNote icon is present there, then delete it. If only the Quick
Launch icon is there, then try some of these locations to see where it is
launching from:
