Here's some typical computer geek talk that I came across on a list of my
start programs.

IgfxTray
dla
HPHUPD04
TkBellExe
MSMSGS

If you type those file names into Google it will give you information about
what the file is, what it does and whether or not it is necessary. So for
example:

Igfxtray is the little icon at the bottom right hand corner that you can
click on it to change your screen resolution and graphics quality. If you do
not change these setting a lot you can stop this one from loading at start
up.

dla - has something to do with assigning drive letters. I would get rid of
it.

HPHUPD04 is related to your printer. Probably leave that one alone.

TlBellexe - has to do with Real Player. I would get rid of it. It loads at
start up to make it faster to load Real player when you want to play
something. I would rather just wait until when I want to use Real Player
than wait every time the system starts. Plus I hate Real player...

MSMSGS is Microsoft instant messenger it is hard to get rid of because
Outlook uses it for some silly thing and you have to change settings in
Outlook to make it go away completely.

The wise man is not he who knows but he who knows where to look. Google
makes sages of us all.
