Boot up u r system faster

Though there is no application in "start up" folder, but u r feeling that u r pc is booting slow.. then a quick solution to this is
go to RUN dialog box and type MSCONFIG, opens the "system configuration tool" then switch to "start up" tab and deselect all the application which u don't want to run during the start-up.
If u r an admin u can switch to "services" tab and disable all unnecessary services.

autorun is another excellent utility that shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login
