Re: msconfig

You mean permantently remove those programs from startup (i.e. No longer
listed in msconfig).

That is fairly easy, regedit and choose the run folder and pull the entries
Out that way.

This document gives backup info for the registry:

You can also (if you don't use the programs at all) just uninstall the
programs and leave it at that.
