Calibre opening a web page at startup.
Hello,
I've set Calibre to start on windows startup but everytime it opens a Web Page starts up with it which plays obnoxiously loud music and some stupid cartoons. Has anyone had this problem before? Does anyone know how to make calibre stop opening this web site? |

Did you download adware from the right side? Have you done a Malware scan? Calibre does not open a browser at all as part of ANY startup Calibre dos go out and check for updates, but YOU need to launch the fetch (uses the browser) |

I've put a Shortcut to the Calibre executable in the Startup folder of the Start menu.
I just figured out the problem. Indeed is has nothing to do with Calibre. It was a malware. I had to install adwcleaner to remove it. My apologies to Calibre community! |
