Hi. This may be because you(unintentionally, ofcourse) or somebody else has scheduled My Documents at logon. This maybe fixed by using regedit.
Go to Run and type regedit and press enter.
First off, create a backup of your registry. To do this, go to file -> export
Now navigate to : HKEY_Current_User -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Current Version -> Run.
Now on the left pane, you will be able to see certain keys. BE VERY CAREFUL! Do not delete any other key.
In the description, it should say C:\(or whatever your primary partition is)User\my documents
Delete this key. That should work out.

I'm afraid you made it more complicated than it is.
It's just installed on his startup.
Run>msconfig>Startup, find MyDocuments and uncheck the box.
Click yes, and reboot your computer.

Have you checked start all programs and startup and seeing if its in there? If it is just delete it and you should be ok...

Ok, there is a trick if that didn't work.
Rename the MyDocuments and reboot the computer.
If it's just sth done by an accident it will no longer appear at the startup list because it's an ''invalid command''.
Else, I have NO idea, how the heck did you make it and how the heck to fix it.

Jeeeez that's how it's done!
I hate when I act like a smart guy, instead of googling.
It's a lot more complicated!!
But this is gonna work, dw!
Please, reboot the computer in safe mode, your usual account.
Now turn off SystemRestore!
(Start>AllPrograms>Accessories>SystemTools>Systemrestore>Systemrestore Settings>Turn off).
Please run HijackThis ( I believe you have it installed on your computer, else download from http://filehippo.com/download/0e0a4476bb67470852b2d430cb13c07c/download/)
Next to do is scan it right there.
After it finishes it will produce a log ( if chosen Scan and save a logfile ) otherwise you'll get a window with listed some proccesses and stuff.
Place a check on these lines!
F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,userinit.exe
O21 - SSODL: Web Event Logger - {79FEACFF-FFCE-815E-A900-316290B5B
738} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\Egdbnpdl.dll
O21 - SSODL: mtkle - {4AF272B6-2894-4979-6985-A807CD166A02} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\vfqy32.dll
Then, delete THIS files!!:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Egdbnpdl.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\vfqy32.dll
( you know how don't you? Go to C, WINDOWS, System32 and find this vfgy32.dll and Egdbnpdl.dll and delete).
Now please reboot in normal mode, see what's going on, and if everything is right, turn on Systemrestore and be sure to let us know here!
If it doesnt work, be sure to let us know here!
cheers and gl!
