How do you view what programs are executed when XP starts up.

My Start menu, Startup folder is empty.

Thanks ahead of time.

I use a program called bootlog xp. It even gives times on how long each app
takes to boot.

The startup folder is only one place from which programs can
start automatically. There are many third-party utilities which
show all (or most of) the autostarting programs, but you can use
the one built into Windows. Type msconfig at the Start | Run
line.
