Start>Run> MSCONFIG...BEST wait to delete startup shit..
 

from the MSCONFIG prompt?

you just learned about that?

:pimp :pimp

thats how i do it

I meant whats the best way to delete the unchecked shit in there?

and if that doesnt work just hit it with a hammer.

ummm assuming this is not a trick question... just leave it unchecked as it might fuckup the program or if you are sure you don't need it go to add/remove and uninstall it

Un checking it stops it from starting on boot up, but you can use it later. Remember that if you do remove it, some other programs may not work, if they were sharing files.

You need to edit the registry, i'm not completely sure.
Start>Run>Regedit is not fun =/

hijack this is also a program which digs deeper (registry entries, etc) too. FYI
