Windows Installer

A few months ago the old PC was replaced with a nice, brand spanking new one. Complete with integrated printer and scanner. Every thing worked well - and still does. But....

Recently (in the last week or so) every time I power up the computer I get a "Windows Installer" icon on the screen saying "Preparing to Install". It appears to be installing something and then goes away again after a few seconds. The same thing happens every time I turn the printer on or off.

I was prompted to reinstall the software for the printer and didso, by my new friend Window Installer keeps coming back?

What's going on? And how do I sort it out?

PS I am curently having problems with connecting to the internet, being disconnected etc but this is probably due to audible noise on the line - must phone BT....
