apps at start up

What is the best method for removing items from the start up menu. Also how do you know exactly what the programs are? Everytime I run msconfig and go to start up, there a lot of programs I have no idea what they are by their name. I want to get back to minimal background items. Thanks..

I have a little program called startman that identifies the startup programs and will remove unwanted ones on startup.you can get the program by searching google.it lists programs and you can right click and find out if the are
necessary.
