Control your system's start-up processes with Autoruns

The usual way to deal with Windows boot bloat is the System Configuration Utility, which can be accessed by typing "msconfig" into the Run box. But that will only get you so far. Autoruns is an advanced startup configuration program that will show you every process, including Explorer add-ons, Winsock LSPs, Browser Helper Objects, and more, which starts when Windows does, and the order in which they're launched. And, of course, you can temporarily disable or permanently delete ones you don't want hanging around anymore. Like msconfig on speed.
Thanks, Jason.

Great - I have one programm, which is in stealth mode and I can't find that. Hopefully, this will make it easier to find out this annoying programm!
From the screenshot it does look like a good usable application.

why not msconfig?
