Slow startup

Hi, longtime ObjectDock user here. I installed it on my new Win 7 x64 PC and pretty much customized it with my previous settings I used to use on my old machine (it worked fast and flawlessly). However, it slows down startup and takes about 30 seconds to load up, I've tried various settings.

Any advice?

Take it out of the start up folder, just kidding.

Could it be something that you have on the dock?

What version of Object Dock and what type of dock?

Could it be another program that is slowing down start up?

The version is 1.99.742.

I've disabled my other startup programs and it's still slow.
My dock has 9 shortcuts, no gadgets.

It's basically the same setup I used to use on my x86 PC.
Settings:

Style: Sticky (no transparency)

Bubble effect
Dock always stays on background

Is that the free version or the paid version?

These type to things turn out to be a process of elimination.

Since you have disabled everything in the start up folder, then disable ObjectDock and see how long start up takes.

Then enable ObjectDock and reboot. If it is noticeable slow, then delete all the items from the dock. Start adding them back one by one and see which one might be causing the slow down.

I think if you contacted support they would probably suggest doing this. Hope you find what it is.
