Renaming network drive with script - Net Use?

Basically I have about 15 network drives that I have mapped to my computer at
all times. Each of the drives require a password to connect to them, which in
turn makes windows take a hell of a long time to 'load my personal settings'.

I have been looking into the problem a couple of different ways. I looked
for a way to disable auto connect 'feature' in Windows so that it doesn't
take quite so long to load up my desktop. No luck. I also am now looking
into deleting all my network drives on shutdown and recreating them at
startup using the net use commands in a batch.

The only problem with this is that the names of the drives are very cryptic
and I cannot remember which one is for what. Is there a way to easily rename
the network drives just after they are mapped in startup? I have googled it
but have only found vb scripts and that seems to complicated for something
(hopefully) so simple.

Any help would be great, thanks.
