corel photo album is agressive on startup

Whenever I log on to the computer, windows installer starts running and it turns into an updater or installer for corel photo album 6. I cannot get rid of it with the cancel button. It cannot run it's course because it requests a CD I either do not have or cannot find. It just keeps coming back until I use the task manager to get rid of it. This drastically slows down startup. How do I get rid of this.

It started because after I disabled msconfig for the malware removal forum.

Also, due to combofix, the clock on the computer is stuck in military time. I cannot find an option to switch it back.

I asked these over in the malware forum, but it's a bit backed up over there and I'm repeating these questions over here since they aren't really malware questions.

 

I assume you are running XP. To reset the clock:
Control Panel -> Regional Settings -> click on the Time tab and choose the format h:mm:ss tt

For Corel photo album, open the program and see if there is a setting to check for updates. If so, turn it off.

 

It will now take me a while to get back to working on this computer because for the next couple of months, I will have access to it only on weekends.

The time is fixed. Thankyou.

before reading your response about a week ago, I thought I could fix the problem simply by uninstalling corel photo album. I don't know that that anyone used it.

Doing this only shifted the problem. Now when I log on, the installation window is for "Sonic Activation Module".

Someone suggested that I use windows install cleanup, but I don't know whether this will disable something that I need and I don't know that I have the backup disks. Someone lost a lot of our backup disks and it has cheesed me off.

 

If the computer is a Dell, go here

and try the fix that doesn't use the windows installer cleanup utility.
