startup

hi
I am running windows office XP and when computer boots up and everything
loads my documents folder comes up. it has been doing this for a couple of
months now and it is not the last thing I was working on. I know xp will
save the last action you were doing on computer and turn it on at start up
but I haven't been in my documents folder when I get ready to shut down. is
it possible there is a virus or some sort of spyware doing this? I have
scaned my computer with spy sweeper but it shows nothing but cookies no
spyware or key loggers. and AVG scans computer weekly and has found nothing.
is there something at start up I can do to stop the documents folder from
opening up on start up. thanks
