In Vista Ultimate Explorer always starts when Windows starts

How can I keep Explorer and the Media Center from starting up when Windows
starts? I searched for help on this and it said to use the defender. But
that did not do the job.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Are you running Vista or Vista SP1 now?

Are you referring to Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed? What
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall
(if any)?
