Internet Explorer opens at boot up

This is annoying, every time I boot up my computer, Internet Explorer opens.
This has only just started to happen I always opened IE manually.
How do I stop it from opening when I boot up my comp.
I'm running ME

I know on XP if you have IE in your start up folder, that will make it start up at boot time.

Go to Run in your Start Menu, then type in 'msconfig'
Go across to the Start-Up tab and remove any programs (including IE) that are in the startup tab, as this will speed your boot-up too
