I have only one toolbar...Yahoo... and our laptops (2) do not.
The computer with the Yahoo bar is the slow start up one.

The laptops don't have that problem. The Win 7 laptop is slow about everything IMO, and I don't like it. But my old laptop with the new HD is very fast on start up. (it doesn't have much on it tho..and we only use it for photos on vacation, etc. It has wifi so is handy for traveling.)

This site is really good for common sense problems:

This link discusses slow start ups.

top 10 tips of 2010 including the one above.

Look around for other things, there too.

I personally think it is all the tool bars above. Some days the Yahoo one is REALLY SLOW .... I just get Firefox going, and leave and come back. Sitting here waiting makes it seem longer.
