    Look in Avast's setting and make sure it is set to load with Windows.

    To change System Tray settings:
    Right click the Taskbar, click Properties. Under Notification area click Customize. There you can set what you want or do no want to see.

    You can delete the startup keys if needed but, what is running that you do not want?

    Winamp is nothing to be nervous about. Simply open Winamp and press Ctrl+T, look for "Show Winamp in" check Taskbar. That will remove it from the System Tray.

    As for Avast starting with Windows, I do not use Avast and do not know where that option would be.
