I am running Windows XP on my computer with Mozilla Firefox 20.0 and each time I start my computer I get the above error. I would like to know what I have to do to get rid of that error window when I start up my computer.

I'm assuming you see this error well before you start up Firefox?

Microsoft has a couple of tools to see what programs are trying to start when you start Windows, and stop them from doing so.

(1) MSCONFIG

This program is included with Windows. You can read more about it in these articles:

(2) AUTORUNS

This program is an optional download from Microsoft you can get here:

Autoruns for Windows

That page also has links to usage suggestions and a support forum for the tool.
