How to delete items in start up menu

How do I delete skype, msn messenger, aol im etc from starting up when the
computer initially reboots? It is slowing down my computer from loading and
driving me nuts....
I do not want to remove these items but I just want to use the icons on the
desktop IF I want to start them up..

In addition, whatever you tell me to do...do I need to do this for EACH
person's separate name that uses the computer...????

HELP!

Thanks!
