CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This "doctor" may have more illnesses than cures. Though this utility claims to help control programs that start up with Windows, it simply lists the titles and often overlooks more insidious programs such as malware. Startup - Doctor lists applications according to their location in your computer registry. Though you have the option to temporarily prevent a program from launching at start-up with this utility, the program doesn't give any hints as to whether the program is beneficial or not. Most disturbingly, the program doesn't alert you to the presence of malware in your system at all. Overall, we'd appreciate a doctor that is able to examine both the symptoms of a slow PC and find a cure--and Startup - Doctor does neither.Publisher's description

Version: Startup - Doctor 4.1
"Not the best startup manager."
Pros: Startup-Doctor can stop startup programs that you choose, that startup when windows starts. For 15 days then you have to pay for this program to continue using it.
Cons: Quick Startup is free and easy to use. And gives details about startup programs, that startup when windows starts. They will say neutral, not required, unknown, trust worty or at users choice.
