opens. i cant seem to find what initiates this window
opening every time that user logs on
 
There is another possibility that may cause your problem. Go to Start | Run
| msconfig and if there is a line that reads /L:ENG. It
comes from a SoundBlaster Audigy driver and can cause this problem. If
/L:ENG is there get the fix from Kelly's site here:
Line 260 on the right:

Hi,

If the other's advice does not help, the problem can also be caused by other
incorrectly built registry strings. So, if the first two steps don't help
you, could you please export and post the contents of these keys in the
registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

To do this, start/run regedit, expand the branches to each key (do this one
at a time). Click on the key, then on file/export. Give it any name, then
save to the desktop. Once you have saved both keys, close the registry
editor. Right-click one of the saved files on the desktop, choose edit, it
should open in notepad. Click edit/select all/edit/copy. Open a response to
this post and click in the message text area. Hit ctrl+v to paste the
contents. Repeat for the other saved key, then send the post for
examination.
