    hi,
    how likely is it that any software will be calling home if its not started when i`m going online?
    will they hijack the browser and act delayed?
    thanks for any insight
    have a nice weekend

    If you are on Windows, checkout autoruns64. It will give a list of software, dlls etc that automatically run when your system starts.

    Unless you have browser extensions then you need check auto running software.
