    M-Audio firmware slowing down shutdown.

    I have an M-audio (oxygen 8, older model) midi surface that i use with garage band through usb , it works fine, but the problem is that it makes shutdown longer than it takes to shutdown my windows pc (that's saying something). the only way i have figured out to stop it is manually through activity monitor (a process called "M-Audio firmware")
    my question is, is there any way to change the start up plug ins so it only runs when i need it to run?
    I have already tried the start-up programs under my administrator account, but it looks like it is running under root.

    I don't think this will help any, but my laptop model is:
    Macbook 13 inch white 2.1 ghz, 2 gb of ram, 320 gb hdd, running os x 10.5.8


    Specs of quad:
    Motherboard: Asus p5p pro
    Processor: intel q9550
    Memory: 8gb of G.Skill pi
    Video Card: MSI r4870 1gb
    Hard drive: seagate 750gb
    Monitor: 22" acer LCD
    OS: windows vista x64
    PSU: xigmatek 750w
