CNET Editors' review
Startup Delayer helps users avoid a slow system start by giving them control over programs that automatically load when Windows boots up.
This program provides a simple interface to work with. The screen is dominated by the list of programs your computer opens when starting Windows. Above this list is a short row of icons that allow you to add and remove programs and organize the time they are opened.
Adding a program is as simple as locating it in the file tree and then assigning it a specific time to open after Windows has begun. From there it is listed, along with the others, on the main screen. One interesting addition is spacing all program load times out evenly. This takes a lot of work from the user by simply timing every program to automatically open at staggered intervals.
Startup Delayer has isolated a problem that many computer users suffer from and provides an efficient, simple way to solve it. It's suitable for any user who wants more control over start-up programs.

"works as its intended"
Version: Startup Delayer 3.0 build 323
Pros
it lets you add programs to your startup and manage those that the user has already configured to run at startup
Cons
ive used an older version of this program that had crash issues after startup but so far havent happened yet
Summary
it does what it says by letting the user manage your startup programs, though its mainly for delaying your startup programs and doesnt make your computer run faster which most people writing some of the reviews in here have been misinformed. this program is a godsend to those that use it correctly cause if you really want a program to run at startup and cant configure it otherwise then this program lets you do just that!
