I don't want to disable it until I make sure that this is what I need to disable, so I will wait for your reply.

Thanks, Terry

All of that AutoT stuff, including the AutoTKit.

Here is what I found about it..

This program is not required to start automatically as you can run it when you need to. It is advised that you disable this program so that it does not take up necessary resources.
Found only on HP Computers. Unclear what purpose it serves - but there's a known issue with Internet Explorer Toolbar settings not being saved with it enabled

We research all entries before telling people to turn them off. We only say to turn off those which are not required to run the computer OR the specific program they point to, like the Adobe stuff for instance. Those Adobe programs run perfectly fine without being auto starting programs.
Unnecessary auto starts are known to slow down a computer and sometimes also interfere with programs you may start up later.
