Windows cannot open this file: BigFix.Ink.disabled

[Alex]

Since a few days at start-up I receive an error message saying

WINDOWS
Windows cannot open this file
File: BigFix.Ink.disabled

And when I click "Use the Web service to find the appropriate program",
up comes www.pctools.com and offers a check of the registry for free.

I did run the check and the program said it found 798 errors, which I feel
is ridiculous,.and then PCtools
offers to download the "latest version of Registry Mechanic" for sme money.
A "computer specialist" had installed Registry Mechanic on my computer about
a year ago, because he said it is necessary.
I removed both bigFix and Registry mechanic from the computer, using the
appropriate programm from the Control Panel. And
I later also deleted the file-folder of BigFix from my Program Files, which
had still been there after having removed the program.
But the error message message keeps coming up every time at start-up.

How can I get rid of this nuisance?

Regards,
Alex

Download Autoruns: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Autoruns.html
Extract it, run it.
Look for the entry that matches BigFix.lnk.disabled or similar and uncheck
it.
Restart your computer.
