    You can do this Job if you install Ccleaner. This application is totally freeware. you can disable all unwanted startup application and many more...like temporary files cleaner, registry cleaner even you can uninstall unwanted applications as well.

    Msconfig is a very good solution. Another method, and sometimes suggested as the way to go, is services. Possibly you may want to type services into search and use it in conjunction with msconfig. In any event good luck and enjoy
