YES! it was FSautostart. This program is great because not only does it shut down the programs AUTOMATICALLY when launching a selected game, but it restarts then automatically when your done with your game. As far as knowing what programs to disable, this nifty program will make suggestions, for each program line entry, what the program is..what it does, and even makes suggestions as to leaving them running or shutting them down. Thanks for the link! (and its FREE too!..uh, they ask for a donation if you can )
