Regedit is effective as it give you control over many 'hidden' features of WinXP and all, but it's also VERY dangerous for those who don't know how to handle it. You might end up fu*king up the registry and thus your whole OS install. I guess for the people who don't wanna take a risk a tool where u can easily select what and what not to load at start-up is best.
For me the criterium wether or not to let something load at start-up is wether I wanna use it right away. Say Winamp...I use that, but not the minute I start-up, so there's no need for me to have WinXP load it at start-up as that will only take away systemresources and increase the boot-time. The more you load at start-up the more time it'll take.

i heard winamp agent is the thing that searches for winamp updates, so it's not really needed... don't know if my pc boots faster now, but there are less icons near the clock so i'm glad hehe
