Run regedit, go to key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run (here are the program that are loaded when Windows starts).

what file man? lorand was right about what to do...you can also go to run and type msconfig and that do some stuff from there if needed. goign to to registry is probably a better bet...so just tell us the file.
