Now when you are in the System Configuration Utility, click the Startup Tab.

This a list of all the programs that are set to start each time you enter Windows.

There is a check box next to each entry, unchecking a box will stop the program from running (doing so will not remove the line from the list, so you don't need to worry about losing a progam you might need).

In my list I unchecked:
AIM
Reminder (Microsoft Money Bill Reminder)
RealTray (RealPlayer)
QuickTimeTask
TaskMonitor (I don't run tasks on my PC)

I boot with 92% resources free.
