I suppose that you've already checked your startup folder :)

Next step is to check the following keys in your registry (use regedit.exe):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices

Also should check from Services in Control Panel Wether you have a service installed from that program

Hope this helps,
mail me if you need some more help

Also check the that particular programs properties. It may have it's own prefrence that you can check mark as "not run on windows startup" type deal.
