How do I change my start up preferences on PC?

How do I change my start up preferences on PC? I loaded the Kodak Easy Share program on my computer, actually I just installed a new version. But every time I turn on the computer it turns on, I had this problem with the old version but I can't remember how I fixed it. I think I went to somewhere on my computer and made a preference that nothing automatically turns on when I turn on my computer, except virus protection. Do you have any ideas for me?

    Stomp auto-starting programs. Click Start > Run and type "msconfig" at the prompt. Click the Startup tab and look at all that junk that loads when you launch your PC. Do you really need "Adobe Reader Speed Launch"? Probably not. Turn off anything else that looks useless, but be careful not to disable your anti-virus and important system components.
