Macbook startup program won't go away

cctex823cctex823 Registered User regular
I've got a 1st gen Macbook w/ Leopard and lately i've been getting a program pop up on boot and leaving just as fast. I've been able to hover my mouse over it and see the name during the split second it's up and it says "Install Utility". I'm not the most proficient Mac user ever, Finder comes up with nothing, but I look in Console and see a bunch of entries for eltima.async. After searching, it looks like the remnants of Eltima Async (go figure!) that i had installed way back and removed it since. The only problem is that I don't know how to remove the entries from startup. There is nothing in Accounts in startup either. Here's a log from a boot:

    Check:

    /Library/StartupItems
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/LaunchAgents

    If you see it in any one of those folders, you should be able to drag it to the trash and reboot, and it should go away. Keep in mind this is the Library folder at the root level of your hard drive, not the one in the home folder, and definitely NOT the /System/Library folder.

    If this is occurring at login and not system boot I'd look in your the StartupItems and Launch* dirs in your home dir.
