Popup folder after startup

Hi.

I just reinstalled everything due to virus and keylogger attacks!

Now I have all WinXP updates, AV, software firewall (Zone alarm 5) and other software to block out and remove invasive softwares!

Everything worked out fine until...

On a restart, a window appears after start up...

"Common" window with folder, BIN. It's empty!

It's part of the startup that's messed up but I do NOT know how to correct!

It's very annoying!!

One of the softwares that I reinstalled probably messed up the startup sequence but previously it did NOT!

Anyone know how to fix?????

Thanks.

    Hi.

    Thanks for responding.

    Yep, already tried "msconfig".

    Only thing left is to painstakingly remove most of the software one by one until the culprit is found!!
