A list of the programs can be found by clicking start>run and typing msconfig and then pressing enter. Now navigate to the startup tab and there will be a list of all the apps loaded at startup. Alternatively, hovering the mouse over the icons whilst they are there should tell you something about them. If you don't know what they are, then it probably doesn't matter if they are not there, but if one is your antivirus program or firewall, then I suggest you make sure you reload them just in case. Hope I haven't confused you further. G P	Guest (0)

Instead of reloading them why not figure out a way of fixing the crash problems with the web. I find that if explorer crashes the best option is too restart as some of the programs may not have been released out of the memory and may still cause you problems.	Guest (0)
