Unfortunately, there are many different ways that a program can install itself, to run automatically on startup.
There are some programs that can help you control which programs are invoked at startup. I seem to recall that one of them had a name like "startup cop". Perhaps a search for "startup" at
www.download.com or
www.tucows.com can help.
