In most versions of Windows, you can run the MSConfig program to see all the programs that are running on your machine.
Most computers have many more programs running than are needed, and this
can cause interference with other programs and use up machine
resources.
Click the Windows Start button, choose Run, the type MSConfig in the "Open" box, and click the OK button. This will display the System Configuration Utility program from Microsoft. Click on the Startup tab to see a list of programs that are loaded automatically when you computer starts up. You can remove the check mark next to any programs you don't want to start up automatically. If you are using Windows XP, also click on the "Services" tab and look at the services with a status of "Running". Remove the check mark next to any of these you don't want to run. When done, close the utility program and then reboot your computer. You can always un-do this change by running MSConfig again and put the check marks back.
