I have a problem that just started occurring recently. Whenever I start up Windows and login, when things are about half way loading, i get a flood of "Windows Installer" trying to install an item (such as Wordpad) that is already installed. If I let it go, it tells me it cannot find the installation msi file. If i click Cancel, it repeatedly tries to install it (I have to click cancel about 27 times). When it started happening, it started with "Coral Photo Album". I figured that I did not need this program so I uninstalled it. It doesn't bother me about that now, but it instantly changed from "Coral Photo Album" to "Wordpad". Is there any way to get rid of this? I do not know if it is spyware or not, so I posted it here.

I would download and install the latest version of Windows Installer. You can go here for explanation and download link:
