Here are those which are either Not Required or Users Choice;
ati2evxx.exe>>>ATI External Event Utility EXE Module. This task can comsume lots of CPU resournces on some computers, but it can help with graphics card problems. Leave enabled unless it consumes too many CPU resources
brmfcwnd.exe>>>Brother scanner status monitor - can be started manually
cli.exe>>>System Tray access to ATI's CATALYST™ CONTROL CENTER. Note that this has "SystemTray" appended to CLE.exe in the "Command" column of MSCONFIG. Not required to run the control center - which is available via a right-click on the desktop
daemon.exe>>>Daemon Tools - used to map an image-file (.iso, .bin etc) to a virtual CD/DVD-drive. Users choice. Not required to run at start.
directcd.exe>>>Unless you use this on a frequent basis it isn't required and is available via Start -> Programs. Start the program before inserting a DirectCD formatted CD-RW in the drive. A re-boot is recommended if you close Adaptec DirectCD before re-opening it again later
inetinfo.exe>>> Executable used by MS Internet Information Server (IIS). If it's running, then so is IIS. Useful in knowing whether you require the patch for the Code Red worm. Comes with PWS (Personal Web Server) or NT4 and handles ASP-, PHP code (+ more) Users Choice
iPodService.exe>>> This service is used by Itunes for using your Ipod. If you do not use Itunes you can disable this service.
jusched.exe>>>checks for updates for SunJava updates. Can easily be run manually if you remember to do so.
mdm.exe>>> Used by developers for debugging. Those who have encountered it have unchecked it with no degradation in performance. May cause your computer to "hang" if you have MS Visual Studio installed and this disabled because it appears to take over error handling - hence a User Choice recommendatioon.
soundman.exe>>>System Tray icon for the Realtek AC97 Audio Sound Manager for AC97 onboard audio. Available via Start -> Settings-> Control Panel
I did not include EndItAll which was also running when you did your PrintScreen. I am assuming that you turned this on as this is not required to run all the time.
I usually recommend Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel which makes it easy to enable or disable unnecessary or user's choice programs at Start Up.
