Quickstart.exe is not a Windows core file. It is a problem linked to Openoffice 2.0 software. If you reinstall open office 2.0 the problem no longer exists. Once you uninstall open office 2.0 the quickstart.exe problem reappears. Just locate where the quickstart.exe file exists and remove it. Problem solved!
