"Last Updated: March 2, 2005 v7.0
Introduction
This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting
locations of any startup monitor (A starting list of auto-run locations
was obtained from David Solomon's "Windows Internals" seminar), 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. Also included in the download
package is a command-line equivalent that can output in CSV format,
Autorunsc.
You'll probably be surprised at how many executables are launched
automatically!
Autoruns works on all versions of Windows."

Gordon
