Disable progams form startup?

Is there a way to remove programs from startup? When I turn on my Droid the following apps open and I must use Advanced Task Killer to stop them or it'll run very slow:

Photoshop.com Mobile
AK Notepad
Alarm Clock
Gmail
Messaging
Corporate Calendar
Visual VM
Last FM
Market
Slacker
Voice Dialer
Lookout Mobile Security
Browser
Email
Settings
Advance Task Killer

I know that some need to run upon startup, but why Photoshop, Last FM, Market, Slacker, Browser, etc.? Is there any way I can change the startup settings on these?

Thanks,
Saner

I also notice that even when I kill all the tasks, Slacker appears back on the list after only a few seconds without launching it. Is this normal?

Over Macho Grande?
Those music streaming apps (Last.fm, Slacker, Pandora) will stay open if you have them set to "scrobble" your music. Basically they keep a record of what you like so that they can make recommendations to you. A lot of them have this feature turned on by default. I'd try turning it off and seeing if they still sit in the background.
