 a: great software, if the website is down. they have mirror websites: http://codestuff.mirrorz.com/, so http://codestuff.tripod.com/ would be the one to link too. [2007-11-13 18:57]

 Webfork: A very advanced startup control software that provides an abundance of information on your startup programs. Probably more than the average user will want but power users will be right at home.

Can save some space by deleting non-english LNG files. [2009-06-19 10:03]

 freakazoid: A much, smaller alternative to this program is Nir's WhatInStartup:

 PortaFreekinMento: This application really helped me out a lot. It's also useful for changing junk from Local User to Local Machine (which has certain benefits across profiles). I like how it's really easy to enable|disable stuff and it can be configured to show some stuff that won't show up in the Windows "services" listings. For example, you can see the UDF support process and other stuff like that. A nice program that compliments this one is Win Seizer. With Win Seizer, you can stop the hidden connection tray window for example, which isn't needed if you're not on the internet. Both programs, especially this one, are good for showing stuff that got installed into the boot chain and disabling or modifying it. Also, you can create your own entries, as you like them, if you want something like gMote (for example) to run at boot regardless of whether or not Windows Explorer is running or not. I haven't had any problems with this application. Thanks very much to the author of Starter.exe. [2009-12-26 22:57]

All HTML tags will be removed from your comment. URLs (http, https, ftp) will be automatically detected and hyperlinked. I reserve the right to delete irrelevant, frivolous or offensive comments. For more general topics (eg. whether apps that write to the registry, leave traces on the host machine, rely on certain versions of IE etc. can be considered portable), please post to the Portable Freeware Discussion forum. If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
