Welcome to the wonderful world of Apple, launching programs in the
background, stealing file associations and lots of other fun.

OK let's get down to business.

Go to Start
-> Run
--> Type msconfig and hit enter
---> Click the startup tab, Quicktime's background application is qttask, so
uncheck that and hit enter.

Have a look in Start -> All Programs -> Startup to (delete it if it's there
too).

That *should* sort it.
