It is most likely being called from one of the "run" registry keys...
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
-or-
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

To address the problem
Open regedit by going to Start>Run type regedit and then press 'Enter'.
Navigate to the registry key below
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogon
Look for Userinit on the right, double click on Userinit
Erase c:\windows\system32\VirusCleaner.vbe
it should now be just c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe,
Do NOT delete the comma.
Press 'Enter'. Close Registry Editor.
Finally Reboot the system.
The issue is that the VBE file is set to run at startup without actually setting it as a startup item. it's an infection by the way most likely.
