[Solved] Too much applications start at boot up !

Hello !
I apologize in advance for my poor English ...

So I used to run GNOME as my Desktop Environment, and I set some applications to start at boot up, such as Tilda, Cairo-dock, conky ...
Now, I'm using OpenBox, and some applications start, even if they're not in my autostart.sh !
So, here is my autostart.sh

# Run the system-wide support stuff
. $GLOBALAUTOSTART

# Programs to launch at startup
xcompmgr -t-5 -l-5 -r4.2 -o.55 &

# Programs that will run after Openbox has started
(sleep 2 && conky) &

So in this case, xcompmgr and conky starts, but cairo-dock and conky too, even if they're not here my autostart.
How can I control these applications ?
This problem is like a window$ problem, so I must do something !
Thanks a lot !

PS: I have some kde4 packages installed (because they were needed for some dependencies problems ...)

Perhaps you have some entries in your ~/.xinitrc?

Oh sorry, I forgotted to post my .xinitrc

#!/bin/sh

#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
#

# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# exec icewm
# exec blackbox
# exec fluxbox
 exec openbox-session

The only entry I have, in the openbox one ...

Try commenting out the global autostart line.  I believe the /etc/xdg/openbox global autostart script checks for gnome elements and launches them.

Here we go. Now only Conky and xcompmgr start.
But there s something strange, I didn't set the nitrogen app to start, when I was under GNOME, but with the GlobalAutostart, nitrogen started ...
I'm going to load my session with gnome, and I ll check if there are still some apps configured to start with the session ...

Okay, I made a mistake, that was not nitrogen who started, but simply the wallpaper that was configured with the gnome's tools !

So as I'm not using GNOME any more, I'll remove it, and things will be okay !

Thanks a lot.
