An app on a Mac that automatically launches on boot and I don't want it to. The app itself offers no way to prevent this. Rather than identify the app, I figured it would be nice to use this question as an opportunity to identify all the places such an app could hide.
Here's where I've looked so far, and I still haven't found it:
- Accounts - Login Items
- Dock - Open at Login
- launchd - Cycled through each tab of agents & daemons in Lingon
Other ideas?
