1.
Go to start->run->regedit
Select "My Computer", then Edit->Find and search for magic.exe. Delete all occurences of magic.exe
Close regedit

2. Take a look at all shortcuts
Right click "C:\Documen ts and Settings" and select "Search"
Search for
*.lnk with word or phrase magic.exe in it

3. Use a free utility like Autoruns http://technet.microso ft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx to check your autostarts and remove magic.exe from it.

Best regards

Peter
