saw this & thought I'd pass it on - no experience

Soluto tells you exactly what's launching at boot time (far more than is shown by Windows' built-in msconfig app), how much boot time this takes, and what startup apps might be unnecessary.

It divides the boot-time applications into three categories: No-brainer (remove from boot), Potentially removable (advanced users), and Cannot be removed with Soluto (yet …). (See Figure 3.) Click on any item within a category and you get a brief description; click the description's Advanced link and you get more details, such as what you gain and lose by allowing this program to load at boot time. Should you decide you don't want an app to load at boot, click the Pause button.
