Are they set to load at each boot?

There is a chance you did not actually install a browser. PPM shows a lot of files that are add-ons or parts of a program. It is easy to not actually select the complete program package. If you tell us exactly what PPM installed. That should tell us. PPM->Uninstall will list what PPM installed. Beca...
