I don't think so. But if you hold down the apple key, this will prevent extensions from loading.

I can't believe I still remember stuff like that after all this time.

I don't think so. You can do what Iman suggested, or rebuild the desktop.

Why, are you having a problem?

holding the shift key causes none of the extensions to load. This is what you want it is kind of a "safe-mode" but you will not have TCP/IP or any other extensions. You know that extension manager in the control panel has everything that runs on your computer and all the files that boot when your computer does right?
