you need to look in the registy.

start > Run > Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Windows > Current Version > Run

Clear some shit out of here. this is where alot of software, and viruses start from

delete stuff like winzip, winamp agent and quicktime etc..

but nothing that looks important to windows
