'AutoRuns for Windows' by Windows Sysinternals is also a free startup
manager. From the website:
"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.
Autoruns' Hide Signed Microsoft Entries option helps you to zoom in on
third-party auto-starting images that have been added to your system and
it has support for looking at the auto-starting images configured for
other accounts configured on a system."

To find out what is running *now*, try Process Explorer:
"Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open?
Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which
handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded."
