I am trying to find better utilities than the ones that come with Windows XP. the main ones I am looking to have alternates for are Disk Defrag, Disk Cleaner, Task Manager, and MSConfig. The cheaper the better. Thanks.

These guys make the best windows utils in my oppinion. So good that microsoft bought them. Fortunently the quality of their products has not been sacrified. They’re also completely free! Their "Prcoess Explorer" App is pretty much task manager on steroids, and then some. I highly recommend they’re stuff.
FYI, one of the guys who writes this stuff is also the one who discovered the infamous Sony rootkit.

Disk Defrag: The #1 and best-selling defragmenter is Diskeeper, so that would be my choice. It’s got loads of options, defrags quickly and is safe and stable.
Task Manager; Process Explorer is excellent. Far more comprehensive than task manager.
Disk Cleaner: Ccleaner is generally decent, and that’s what I use. It also gives a list of the startup items.
