You can prevent a lot of apps forcing Windows into chilled-molasses boot times—without uninstalling anything.
Click Start, then "Run...," (Or Press Windows Key + R)
and type msconfig.
This brings up the System Configuration Utility window.
Click on the Startup tab to see a list of all the apps slated to start when you boot up Windows.
Click the check mark next to any you don't want, and then click OK to save your choices.
(Work in - Windows XP, Vista, Seven)

If you're trying to eliminate every extraneous mouse click, you can shut down your computer with an icon on the desktop.
Right-click on your desktop,
click "New," and then click "Shortcut."
In the "Type the location of the item" field, type "shutdown -s -t 00" to give you a way to shut down the computer immediately.
(Change the -s to -r to create a reboot shortcut instead.)
(Tested on Windows XP)
