If you use the Adobe Reader 8.0 it has dumped two automatic start-up resource hogs in MSCONFIG start-ups when you start Windows and uses resources even if you are not using Adobe Reader 8.0
Named Adobe Reader SP___ and Adobe Reader SY___.
They are two start-ups that help Adobe Reader speed load the PDF pages and sync of the PDF pages. They can be deleted without any ill effects of Adobe Reader working properly. Just slower loading and sync time when you do use Adobe Reader 8.0
Uncheck them in MSCONFIG start-ups, and then reboot and use the REGEDIT run command to formally remove them from the registry under msconfig.
Location in the registry
HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\SHARED TOOLS\MSCONFIG\STARTUP REG
These are very noticable resource hogs you will see a speed increase in boot-up time.

IE7 dropped a bunch of stuff in, with the latest update, do you know whats safe to take out without hurting performance?
