Following on from the popularity of his AutoKiller memory management app, XDA forum member ratson has gone on to write another application, this time that allows you to control your startup apps on your Android device.

Autorun Killer lets you kill startup apps as soon as they are started, hence shortening system load times, freeing up valuable resources and letting you decide what you want to run on your system. A long press on an app entry enables a menu from where you can select to enable/disable, get more information on the app or uninstall.

Autorun Killer is available in the Market for free, for more information, head on over to the application thread.
