MSCONFIG

Looking at others posts, I have additional startup items that I would like to know if they are needed at startup, they are:

cftmon.exe
webhancer agent
MOSEARCH
scriptblocking

Thanks for your help!

    Webhancer is spyware. I suggest you d/l, install, & run AdAware, which you can find by clicking on my sig & looking under "Useful utilities & downloads". Also, while there, you can look up the others at Denny's site-what to eliminate at startup or Pacman's portal (listed under "Support Sites") or the Google search engine.

    BTW, had Webhancer on my machine once (snuck on). It affected my system performance (adversely) significantly.
