Have you had a look in ccleaner>options>settings, to make sure run ccleaner at startup isn't ticked?

Hey everybody. First post.
Im just wondering why ccleaner.exe and uninst.exe are listed in my startup programs? They just appeared on the list a few days ago, and were never there before (Im positive about that, i only have 4 other programs listed).
If i try to disable or delete them, it actually deletes the corresponding file from the c:\program files\ccleaner folder.
Why are they there?
What is actually starting up?
BTW, the Key= Startup User
Any help or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok, its fixed. Heres the solution if anybodys interested. BTW, this machine is runnin vista home premium sp2.
Move the ccleaner start menu folder:
From: C:\Users\"USER NAME HERE"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs (User start menu)
To: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs (All users start menu)
Step by step:
Right click start menu orb, select "open"
Double click "programs" folder
Right click "ccleaner" folder and select "cut"
Close that window
Right click start menu orb, select "open all users"
Double click "programs" folder
Right click on an empty area in the window, and select "paste" (make sure its an empty area, so that you dont paste it into another folder. maximize window if necessary)
Close that window
Open ccleaner, and the 2 files (ccleaner.exe and uninst.exe) will be gone from the startup list.
Note: this will make ccleaner available to all users of the computer, so dont do it if you dont want other users using ccleaner.
I'm not sure why ccleaner does this, where other programs dont. Maybe a ccleaner bug, maybe a windows bug (not likely). Or maybe its intentional, to keep inexperienced users on the pc from runnin ccleaner.
Although there wasn't any problems with havin those files in the startup list, it just bothered me.
Hope this helps somebody. I couldn't find a fix anywhere.
