Go to http://www.hotfiles.com/ and take a look at Startup Cop. It's free,
here's the description:

When Windows starts up, it automatically launches a number of programs for
you. Some of these come from the Startup folder. Windows also looks in six
other locations for files that should be launched at startup. Startup Cop
helps you handle problems with programs that are automatically launched at
startup by listing them and letting you disable, enable, or delete them.
You can save the list of programs that are currently enabled or disabled as
a profile that can be restored at a later time. Startup Cop was written by
Neil J. Rubenking, and first appeared in PC Magazine April 20, 1999.
