Announcing Startup Sentry 2.2!

This release includes many enhancements that improve upon the already superb protection and diagnostic information provided by Startup Sentry. Here's just a brief list of new features...

  • New 'Module' tracking let's you see secondary dll's loaded by applications. This helps locate spyware running inside Internet Explorer and other host applications.

  • Check time can now be adjusted.


We've all had it happen. Suddenly your system begins running slower. Or maybe you see some internet traffic you can't explain. Or there are a few mysterious new icons in your system tray. What happened? Is it a virus? A Trojan Horse of some kind? Or maybe that new piece of shareware you or someone in your family just looked at installed a "few extras" that weren't advertised.

Startup Sentry to the rescue! Startup Sentry monitors every application, service and driver that loads automatically when Windows starts and alerts you immediately whenever new ones are added. With Startup Sentry you'll always know when something new or unexpected is set to launch "under the radar". You'll be alerted to any spyware, adware or Trojan Horse applications that install themselves in your system's registry or other common startup areas. You'll learn about drivers that are still being loaded for hardware that you might have removed long ago. You'll see any application "extras" that load at startup which you might not use, but are consuming precious resources.

Many applications help you organize your startup items. Startup Sentry monitors them in real-time, letting you know immediately when something has changed! 

Most systems load dozens, even hundreds of applications and drivers at startup. Startup Sentry goes well beyond simply keeping tabs of the startup folder. It monitors multiple areas of your system where startup items lurk, including...

  • Common and Current User Startup folders

  • Common and Current User Registry keys

  • Services

  • Device Drivers

  • Running Processes

Who can benefit from using Startup Sentry?

  • Those who regularly install new applications and want additional security against spy-ware, ad-ware, Trojans, and rogue applications.

  • Power users who want to optimize their system and keep it running as efficiently as possible.

  • Anyone who wants to avoid mysteries and surprises when it comes to their computer's configuration.
