If you're comfortable with Regedit, you can check

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

and

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

I use startup inspector. Google it. It googles each startup prog & tells you what it does & tells you whether its safe to turn off. All you got to do is tick a box in the prog & it turns it off.
