The GStartup.lnk indicates that you've got the Gator parasite installed on
your PC possibly as a result of having installed P2P software.
For more details see:

If you have not already done so I would also recommend you download yourself a
copy of the free Ad-Aware 6.0 from Lavasoft
(
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and also SpyBot
(
http://security.kolla.de/) and scan your system for and remove any unwanted
parasites, adware, spyware, foistware and any other junk that might be hiding
on your PC.
