You can also disable unnecessary services from starting up. Checkout Black Viper for their list. Is this a new problem or an on going one?

You can disable ALL startups - except the AV program and those that you might have set yourself - e.g. a dock or the sidebar (gadgets).. Nothing bad will happen if all those startups are disabled. They wil start when needed.
