Don't know about filty files but you can see if too much stuff is starting
when you start your computer by opening MSCONFIG.

Start > run > msconfig (in the box) select the startup tab to see what is
loading; uncheck the box for those items you don't deem necessary at
startup. (Make sure you really know what the program does.)
