How many programs do you have in your Startup group? If you're like me, not very many. I realize, however, that there are some users who have about 15-20 programs automatically launch when Windows boots up. You probably only want a fraction of those to run at any given time, so instead of putting all those shortcuts in your Startup folder, why not place a shortcut to another folder--which contains all the shortcuts you'd normally have in your Startup folder. This way, you could pick and choose which programs you want to run when you start every Windows session.
