is there anyhting like startup process , but for shutdown instead !!!?

[aTo]

I have a strange app that keeps being added to the windows
startup list , even when I remove it using one of the task
managers tools , along with the exe file it tries to run
at startup .... , and keeps monitoring everything till I
shutdown to make sure its not being added by a memmory
resident program or something , but when I startup windows
again , its there added again to the startup list ..., and
the exe file I deleted is back there again ...!!!!! , it
seems like it's being added to the startup list during the
shutdown of windows !!! lol , could it be that way ??

anyway this first came with a trojan and a virus infection
that I got , and after removing those with an antivirus ,
and using adware and spyware removers , including the MS
antispyware .... , the problem still exists ...

what shall I do ...!!??

Yes. Many of them work that way. Reboot into Safe Mode and take those same
steps. You may even find that there are invisible processes running in
Safe Mode. HiJack This has a process manager that will detect those hidden
processes and allow you to terminate them. While you're in Safe Mode, run
MSAS, AdAware, SpyBot S&D, and the rest of your arsenal over and over till
they all come up clean. If that doesn't do it, then it's time to post a
HiJack This log in an appropriate forum and get some expert help.

For MSAS when in Safe Mode, choose scan options > Full System scan.
