Check for spyware. Run both Ad-aware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaw... and Skybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/)...... to remove any spyware. Run both as one may caught something the other missing. Then go to microsoft.com and download Defender to protect against future infections. All three programs are free.
Run the msconfig utility. Go to Start, then Run and type in: msconfig
Go to the startup tab
You will see a list of all the programs that are loaded when your computer starts up. If you can spot in there, uncheck it so it does not load.
While there, see if there is anything else you want to uncheck (usually you can uncheck everything). The less that loads, the faster your PC will run. You can always recheck something if you want it.

First go to Start. Then make sure it is attached to your start up menu in all programs there will be a section that says startup. If it is there delete if not find the program in Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel and remove. If that doesnt do it it is time to get some spyware programs to zap it into oblivioun(sp?).
