Vista - removing popup window at start

Hi everyone,

I was wondering about the below items:
Would anyone know if there is a Vista news group in microsoft.com ? I cant
seem to find one.
I am also wondering how to remove that window that pops up as soon as the pc
starts.
In Windows explorer,where is the shortcut button to go up a level ,
and in IE,how to REMOVE the icons and the bar for the favourites,add a
favourite,homepage,font size,tools and help ???

Thanks for any help provided, in advance.

What does the popup window say? If it's the Welcome dialog box, there is a
checkbox at the bottom left. Unchecking it will keep the welcome screen
from starting when Vista boots.

How about THIS one:

PS. It's the same as the one you just posted in.

Then there is this:

See the Address Bar? Click on the part you want to go up to.

Thanks for the reply
RE : ">> In Windows explorer,where is the shortcut button to go up a level"
Question: the address bar has my browsing history,and the folders in Windows
Explorers that I have been to.It does not have list of drives and
folders,like XP does in Windows Explorer

And the "how to REMOVE the icons and the bar for the favourites,add a
>> favourite,homepage,font size,tools and help ???" is in Internet Explorer

Can you help ?
Thank you

There's no toolbar button, but the keyboard shortcut is <Alt>+<Up Arrow>

Don't know how to remove favorites icon/bar. Right-click on the command bar
& you can show the 'Menu' bar and also customize the commmand bar -- 'Help'
and 'Home' are already there, you can add a font size button.
