Hey Icyber

Here's a link that might shed some light on what you can get rid of and explain what they are.

you can go here and download msconfig for 2000

you can go here and find programs

all you really need for your computer to run is IE explorer and sys tray

most of the things in your start up you will recognize if you put them on or not and you can decide if you need them to start when you boot up or run them manually when you need them this does not remove them from your machine it just keeps them from auto running

the path to get to msconfig

start /run /msconfig / startup /uncheck prog you dont want to run auto /apply /ok reboot /check do not show pop up after reboot
