How can I remove/add some applications run in startup?
First always look within the program itself for preferences and options.
If that is not available, you can use the System Configuration Utility.
Do not disable services with it, however.
Start>Run>msconfig [enter]
This brings up the System Configuration Utility. Look on the Startup tab
and find the probable culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, Apply
and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but the next time
you do you'll get a dialog saying you've used the Utility. Just tick
the box that says in effect, "don't bother me about this again".
