why does my floppy drive get accessed at logon?

i am not talking about during boot as i have put harddrive as first in Bios.
when i just reach the desktop, the floppy drive is accessed for a few
seconds. i have reinstalled the floppy drive, checked there are no shortcuts
to floppy drive files, and deselected 'check floppy drive' in norton
antivirus. i have also removed all spyware and viruses using about 8
utilities.

what could it be?
