Startup Delayer gives you the power to optimize your Startup Process by delaying applications from starting up as soon as you log into your computer.

By delaying the applications during start up, your computer becomes usable a lot faster. Startup Delayer will then start launching your delayed applications when your computer is more idle.

Speed-ed my start up by about 50%

Or use Windows built in msconfig to reduce those progs that are set to run at start up but don't need to:

Good point Bazcaz

Another handy little app which will monitor your startup and measure how long each takes is Soluto.
You can then decide which ones should be on delayed start.
