Do you have any other security software installed on your computer that
could be doing it? Just because the software is not listed in your startup
folder does not mean it is not started when you boot your computer. One of
the most common places to look to see what programs are started at boot-up
is in the Registry. Look in all keys are name either "Run" or "RunOnce", and
if there are any values in those keys that you do not want executed at
boot-up, delete them. You may also want to look in the Add/Remove section of
the Control Panel to see if a program got "accidentally" installed when you
installed something else or maybe somehow got installed from a website
without you knowing it. Those are the only things I can suggest looking at
that I know of, so good luck!
