Hey guys Well I have a problem, well not really a problem, but its something that always opens @ start-up. Its a New Folder that opens every time. I can exit it, but its kind of annoying when it starts up all the time. Is there Any way to fix this.

Heres what I got starting up at system start up:

Reader_sl (this is associated with adobe reader)
iTunesHelper (associated with iTunes, my brother uses iTunes so I keep this on)
qttask (associated with quicktime)
P2KAutostart (P2kCommander a filemanager application for Motorola p2k mobile phones )
ctfmon (associated with Microsoft office)

And that is it, please be aware that this is what I have researched and the information for each "proccess" as I believe its called was googled and then I gave information about each. Im not sure if there is a problem, but anyways hopefully it can help someone to help me find out what the heck is wrong and why my new folder keeps on comming up @ system start-up.

Thanks in advance

Download Autoruns for Windows: http://technet.micro...s/bb963902.aspx
No installation required.
Simply unzip Autoruns.zip file, and double click on autoruns.exe file to run the program.
Go File>Save As, and save AutoRuns.txt file to know location.
Attach the file to your next reply.

- P2kAutostart
Restart computer.
