    At least the Weather plugin tries to connect to its home site before starting up. remove it and see if the others come up faster now. If yes, you have your culprit. If no, start msconfig and check the boot tab what else has been added to the boot process over time. Normally you can un-check everything here except for a few important things like anti Virus etc.

    Still we're talking about just some 30-40 seconds once a day I personally wouldn't lose sleep over it :)
