the real start up delayer is a lot better than the one you reviewed here!
It has automated features and a better GUI.
Have a look here [appaholic.co.uk]

We provided instructions on how to backup your startup items before importing them. I'm guessing you didn't go with that advice?

Isn’t there some bitter irony in trying to speed up startup by using a program written in .Net, which is notorious for long loading times (let alone the memory requirements)? It’s a fantastic idea, and a free program too, so I’m looking a gift horse in the mouth in the most awful way, but really – .Net is slow! Even optimized, even on a fast machine, it’s always going to start several times slower than a native Win32 application. Grumble, grumble

i would like to ask about the delay timing. lets say the first app has delay timing of 10 secs, the next app is set to 25 secs. does it mean the 2nd app starts 25 secs after windows or after the first app?

From my tests the timing is always after Windows starts. So it would be 25 seconds after Windows starts up.

Another excellent app for this is Jackass JoeJoe’s StartRight [joejoesoft.com]

However many startup items truly are unneeded, but how to find out. How about RunScanner [runscanner.net] It will help you analyze your startup items so you only keep the ones you need. HP is the worst in this area, when you install their drivers, watch tons of extra startup items show up that you don’t really need.
