There are two processes on my computer that start whenever I log-in: AskDcSrv.exe and another one thats like raysat_something.exe. I've located them both, but theres no sign of them in the startup folder and even TuneUp Utilities can't find them at startup. And there's no problem with it, I just like to use as little memory as possible so I don't like having to close them whenever I log-in. Anyway to make them not start when I log-in?

Have you checked msconfig?

Start -> Run -> msconfig

For me that finds EVERY program that launches with windows.

SOMETIMES msconfig cant see it all. For that i suggest getting manager for your proper OS. I.E. VistaManager XPManager.
