Desktop gadget

Had a go with the Avast desktop gadget then decided it really is not needed so closed it. Now every time i start my laptop the gadget reappears. How do i stop this from happening without uninstalling it?

Which avast version are you using?
I’ve thought this was solved in latest versions.

You can uninstall it through Control Panel.

I am using version 6.0.1000

I think this is corrected in the beta versions.
