Microsoft Narrator on Startup

I've been having this problem for about a month or so now and it is driving
me crazy! I am running Vista x64 Ultimate and whenever I boot up my PC and
appear at the login screen, after 5 seconds or so of inactivity Microsoft
Narrator starts up. I have tried unticking the ease of access checkbox
accessible on the bottom left of the login screen and also unticking the
'Turn on Narrator' checkbox under Control Panel > Ease of Access Center and
saving my changes, but Narrator still insists on starting up at the login
screen every time I start my PC.

After logging in Narrator becomes inactive, it is just really annoying every
time I login. I also checked the startup programs in Windows Defender, and
the only programs I have running are Samsung NCPro, IEE 802.11 Wireless LAN
Utility, Messenger, Microsoft Userinit Logon Application, Microsoft Windows
Explorer, Windows Defender and Skype.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea why Vista has
started doing this.

Thanks,

Dave.
 
Absolutely the most annoying glitch. It happens in XP or Vista. Try this--
1.Click the Start button, click All Programs, click Accessories, click
Ease of Access, and then click Ease of Access Center.
2. Under Explore all settings, click Use the computer without a display.
3. Under Hear text read aloud, clear the two check boxes for Turn on
Narrator and Turn on Audio Description.
4. Click Save.
5. Restart the computer.

I think Restart is the step you are skipping.
