Hi,

Click start and type "regedit", then hit <enter>. Expand the branches at
left to these registry keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig

Check each one at a time by clicking on the Run key. Under the first two
keys, look for a string value in the right pane that has a line that tries
to load that file. If you find it, just delete that string value from the
right pane.

In the last key, it may exist as a subkey under one of the
MSConfig\Startupreg or other subkeys. Here you would delete that entire
subkey below that level that contains the unwanted entry.
