You could first start by typing msconfig in the start->run menu and the last tab are programs loaded at startup. The Registry key you want to also look at, but you should see the same pgms in msconfig: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Also you could use Tweak XP or just do a search on google for windows XP tweaking, performance.

How long is bootup time? What are your system specs. Kazaa is spyware and is not something you really want on your machine. You are better off removing it and installing Kazaa Lite which has the spyware removed.
