Deleting scheduled task on Vista


Hey all,

I made a couple of scheduled tasks (using the standard windows thing) a couple of weeks back as a test - both set as messages to pop up whenever I log on..

This is now incredibly annoying.. especially because the message reads something to do with:

"Complex systems have determined you are an unauthorised user and an electronic alert has been sent to the police, remove yourself from this computer immediatly."

I let my brother use my computer for some homework yesterday, and he turned it on and freaked


But its annoying me as well and I just want to delete them.. Call me dum but I can't work out how!!

Please help!!

The folder only contains the task "Check for updates" and a .txt containing a list of scheduled tasks. Any more ideas?
