How do I permanently turn it off?  I run msconfig
everytime and every time i restart, it's still there.  
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

After you turn it off in msconfig     Right click My
Computer--Properties--Advanced--Under Startup & Recovery
click Settings--Under System Failure/Write Debugging
Information choose "none" from the drop-down box. Ok your
way out  Hope this helps.
