there is/was a program that put an entry in the Run registry keys or places its shortcut into the 'Startup' folders to start itself with Windows.

tried locating the file atom.exe and verified its provider, and why it needs to be existed in your Windows software system??

checked Startup folders for any shortcuts to the actual file named atom.exe?

checked Run registry keys for an entry that is related to atom.exe?

suggestions: download and use a small freeware program called Startup Control Panel ( www.mlin.net/ ) to disable or remove this item (startup item that is related to the atom.exe only) first, and see what is going to happen to your Windows?
