wxWidgets error message comes up at each logon or reboot

Windows Vista company pc just updated after 8 months of sitting idle. Coming up with the following popup error window upon logon to network.

Popup window title "wxWidgets"
Error: Module "wxIdleWakeUpModule" initialization failed
Error: Initialization failed in post init, aborting

We do not use this library here at our company. I have never heard of it until I got this message today. I did find some references to it after searching the Internet, including www.wxWidgets.org and Wiki, but no solutions. I cannot find reference to it in the Registry or in the files and it is not installed on the machine. The person who previously used the pc left the company 8 months ago.

How can I get rid of this error message?

Thanks for your help, akahan. I did install and run autoruns and it proved to be a neat little utility, however, there was no mention of wxWidgets or anything remotely resembling it.

So I still need a resolution.

I had gotten autoruns and I ran it and found about 7 references to the "LastPass" program (which is something we used for awhile), and unchecked them all. Even though there were no obvious pointers to wxwidgets, after I restarted the pc, the error message no longer came up. After looking up LastPass on the internet, I found a reference to wxWidgets on their website.

So Thank You so much!
