This happened to me and I can't recall entirely how I fixed it. It had
something to do with doing a custom install, not a standard install. (Or
whatever the options were named when you run setup -- I don't have the
install with me to run it again and see what they were called.) Whatever
the non-standard install option was, you will be given a choice in it
whether to have Window Eyes start automatically with Windows or not.

Thank you, Bill. I uninstalled it and reinstalled and took the custom
install option - at the very end of the install it asks if you want Window
Eyes to load at startup - I said 'no'.
