Hi. I'm trying to get my computer to run faster and cooler by removing some programs that I don't need from my start up list. Problem is, I don't know which one's I should/can safely remove. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running Vista on an HP Pavilion DV2100 with a GeForce Go 610 GPU. I've downloaded the quick start program and I'm posting the results here:

P.S. I don't have limewire installed and I can't find this directory listed above. Any suggestions?
