ActiveX error message

[Guest]

We keep getting the following error message
"ActiveX component can't create object
Src: Microsoft VBScript runtime error
Line:4 Error:0 Scode:800a01ad"
How can I fix this?

It comes up within a few seconds after booting up. If I close it, it keeps
coming up. If I don't close it, the same error message wil come up again.
If I don't close either message, no further error messages will come up.

Thanks for the reply.

I had already run the spybot and ad-ware. I followed your advise and I think
cleaning up the Windows Start-up is what did the trick. I used the free
"Autoruns" software on the link you provided.

Thank you for your help.
