STARTUP OPTIMIZER

Startup Optimizer inspects programs loading at Windows startup and keeps your PC running faster, cleaner, and error-free. With a program database, Startup Optimizer provides useful information for known programs. You can remove harmful programs like spyware, virus, diallers, make your system healthier and maintain a higher degree of privacy. Startup Optimizer removes junk and obsolete programs, frees up RAM and increases your system performance. I have been using another start up manager but I think I found a new one.

STARTUP CONTROL PANEL

Startup Control Panel is a nifty control panel applet that allows you to easily configure which programs run when your computer starts. It's simple to use and, like all my programs, is very small and won't burden your system. A valuable tool for system administrators!

STARTUP DELAYER

Startup Delayer When Windows loads it's Startup file, it attempts to load every program in there at the same time. Therefore if you have quite a lot of programs starting when Windows starts, each program will try and grab CPU time so that it can load.

If each program tries to do this at the same time, you soon notice the slow down that occurs, due to your CPU trying to help all the programs to load, and your hard disk accessing multiple files. Startup Delayer allows you to setup how many seconds after Windows has started, to load each program.

AUTORUNS

Autoruns This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order Windows processes them. These programs include ones in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other Registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell extensions, toolbars, browser helper objects, Winlogon notifications, auto-start services, and much more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP. Make sure to check out the other goodies on the MS Tech Site.

A SQUARED HIJACK

a-squared HiJackFree enables you to manage programs that are configured to start automatically whenever your computer boots. You can enables/disable selected items, and also edit the registry information. The program offers a very detailed inspection of all startup areas, including several tricky methods that could be abused by malicious programs, but are usually not shown in standard startup managers. It also shows a list of Explorer add-ons, open ports and programs that use them, host file entires, and running processes. a-squared HiJackFree is intended to be used by advanced users only - disabling or removing the wrong components may cause system instability or worse.

STARTER

Starter As a primary purpose, Starter allows one to view and manage all the programs that are starting automatically whenever operating system is loading. It enumerates all the hidden registry entries, startup folders' items and some of the initialization files, so that the user could choose to temporarily disable selected entries, edit them, create new, or delete them permanently.

Secondary purpose is to list all the running processes with possibility to view extended process' information (such as used DLLs, memory usage, thread count, priorities etc.), and to terminate selected process (even a Windows NT service, having enough access rights).Good program but I can't understand why they have a permanent pop up window, no closing it.
