This Startup File Database contains a list of almost every possible application that could load itself when your computer first boots up. Many of these applications are unnecessary and can slow your PC down, some are spyware and can cause hard to your computer and others are applications that you should leave running as they are required to perform certain system operations.
You can find out which items you have running on startup by running "msconfig" from Start > Run and then clicking the Startup tab. Each of the items with a tick next to it is loading each time Windows starts. To find out more about each application, browse the alphabetical list below or type the filename into the search box.
