Does it happen on all profiles:
Check the Start-up folder in the effected profiles or the "All Users"
file:
Open My Computer, double click C drive.
Double click "Documents and Settings"
Double click the user.
Double click "Start Menu", double click "Programs"
Look in Start up folder
What is your Internet Explorer Home Page Set to:

Try these:

Reboot, search for and delete all "*.tmp" files.
