I just looked in my startup folder to find that I have a lot of folders in there. Im assuming they all come from OS X since I don't have too much on my computer. Is it okay to throw out some of those items to speed things up at startup. If so, which ones?

Thanks in advance.

    Ok , Thanks anyway. I sure do miss the days of OS 9 where you could tweak a lot more things to gain speed.
