ICW always starts up when I start Windows Live Mail!!!

Every time I start Windows Live Mail (from the start menu, desktop icon, or
by clicking on c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe) I get an
Internet Connection Wizard attempting to set up a mail account.

I use hotmail/HTTP; one interesting thing is that the ICW does NOT give HTTP
as an option, only IMAP and POP3.

If I quit out of the ICW, Live Mail works fine and I can access my hotmail
account with no problem.

How do I get the ICW to not appear every time I wanna read email?

1. This does NOT happen when I access my hotmail account using Windows Live
Mail on other computers.

2. This DOES happen when I access it as a different user on my computer.

3. I have deleted ALL mail accounts in Live Mail, then recreated the
hotmail/HTTP account; no change.

4. I have uninstalled ALL live apps (using the Windows Uninstaller Tool);
deleted the Windows Live directory in Program Files; and reinstalled Windows
Live 2008; the problem persists.

5. According to add/remove Windows Components, I do NOT have outlook express
installed.

6. IE7 works JUST FINE on my computer and all other apps that access the
internet have no problem.
