All comments about StartupMonitor.exe: Rune Melhus Small program that monitors your startup folders and pops up of a process tries to add an entry there.  See also: Link Thom Chesshyre Very handy - warns you when something tries to add a startup process rschel Terrific little program that warns you whan an application registers something to run at startup. Richard Gibt eine Meldung, wenn ein Programm einen Systemstart einrichtet  See also: Link fanemorrow Best little program i have found helps stop programs form add parts of it self to reg......unless you want to. Kevin A very handy user-friendly program which controls whatever program that tries to add into your system startup list. It also scan and remove or disable unnecessary harmful program fromyour startup list. works incredibly together with a antispyware and antiadware program Martin Works great ! Prevents adware dragons from growing new heads in the registry as you chop them off. Robert Used this great utility for years and consider it essential. Use without fear - it's clean. regulus the best program ever sartalon Great program to run, gives you back control Rick Cooper I'm suspicious that it did not stop when I attempted to disable it. I find traces of it in various monitoring utilities and wonder what it's doing and what it's reporting to whom or where? as mentioned by others, it often erroneously identifies programs as useless or dangerous that are not. For example, it doesn't like nwiz, a program that my NVIDIA graphics card apprarently installed. Security Task Manager shows it as "potentially dangerous" because it starts with Windows, messes with the Registry, has no visible window and operates invisibly. Bunny Have had the program for some time; very satisfied. Mela Used it for years, excellent startup control, not a virus! ark excellent utility!  See also: Link If you know more about StartupMonitor.exe, share your knowledge and help other users.
