It sounds like some program called "ab3 cab extractor" is set to start
with Windows. Go to Start>Run and type "msconfig" without the quotes.
Look on the Startup tab and find the likely culprit. Uncheck the box,
click Apply and OK out of there. And of course it never hurts to do the
first Windows troubleshooting steps: 1) scan with current antivirus
("current" means a version not earlier than 2002 but using updated
virus definitions); 2) remove spyware with Spybot Search & Destroy
(www.security.kolla.de) and Ad-aware (www.lavasoftusa.com). Be sure to
update these programs before running, and it is a good idea to do
virus/spyware scans in Safe Mode.
