how to disable automatic start up?

Could someone please tell me how I stop limewire from starting up when i switch my computer on?
I remember it as an option when I first installed it, but now i can't find the option in preferences. Am i missing something? Thanks.

Thanx, But what i actually meant was how do i stop the LW app. itself from starting when i turn my mac on from shutdown? I Dont mind LW connecting automatically to network when i turn LW on, but what if i don't want it to come on at all? cheers.

No problem. It used to be also be possible by opening System Preferences and Login Items, although it now looks like Apple has removed Login Items from the System Preferences list. No clue why. Just makes it harder for people.
