recently my pc got infected with viruses named postmaster.exe & postgres.exe. My antivirus could not remove them. I searched and deleted them from hard drive & registry, Now whenever i boot my computer an error comes saying "Windows can not find c:\windows\system32\sysmax\postgres.exe Make sure you have typed the name correctly". I don't know why this is happening? I am not trying to open that using 'run' option then why windows is saying this?

I just don't want this error on every boot up

if you delete anything from the system or registry the boot up or system will not work.
