I'd like a referral to a site which lists and describes some of the myriad
of items which end up in msconfig | start.

I Googled "msconfig startup files", but as usual, only get a series of
offers to buy registry tampering file from who knows whom.


Forget msconfig, which should just be used for trouble shooting. Open each
of the programs in the Notification Area/System Tray and turn off the option
to run at startup, except for the ones your really use or your anti-virus
and anti-spyware.
