Programs loading on start

[JUDY]

I have a lot of programs that on a cold start, have to
wait for them to load which can take several minutes and
then they put their icon in the sys tray. Many of these
programs I don't need at that time and have to go to sys
tray and close them out. If needed, I can then go to the
main program lists.
How can I stop these programs from loading on start ups?
Thanks
Judy

Try the free Startup Manager

You can disable whichever programs you don't want starting up... if you want
them back, you can easily re-enable them.
