Find out what is causing it to open (entry in the RUN registry entry,
Startup folder, etc) and get rid of whatever is causing it.

Look through the STARTUP tab of the MSCONFIG command.

You can download this tool "AutoRuns for Windows"
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
And remove the entry from here:

Locate this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run = look in
the right pane/window and remove the entry for it
"C:\common folder here ".

Check these Registry keys for entries with paths that contain spaces,
but have no quotes.

To open the Registry Editor, open the Run box and enter: regedit

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

Example:
C:\Program Files\program path\app.exe /switch

Change to:
"C:\Program Files\program path\app.exe" /switch
