click start button and type "msconfig" and hit enter. When open goto startup tab and un-tick the program with name of "windows live" or "iexplore.exe" and hit apply and close. Hope it will help!

    I also have this problem, but when I look at startup under msconfig there are no entries for iexplorer or Windows Live in the list.  The only MS service is Onelive which is ticked.

    Dear Microsoft staff

    I installed my disk that I bought from a reputable computer dealer with Windows 7 Home Premium to be used on 3 computers at my home.  Now after months of using it on the 2nd computer, it asks if this windows copy is legally licensed?  What can I do to solve this problem?
