Sysinternals Freeware - Utilities for Windows NT and Windows 2000 - Autoruns

Sysinternals Freeware - Utilities for Windows NT and Windows 2000 - Autoruns: "This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor (A starting list of auto-run locations was obtained from David Solomon's 'Windows Internals' seminar), shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order Windows processes them. These programs include ones in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other Registry keys. A 'show non-Microsoft only' option helps you to zoom in on third-party auto-starting images that have been added to your system. You'll probably be surprised at how many executables are launched automatically!"
