Does the "Launch on startup" checkbox show up as selected when the rebooted
(or re-logged in) after unselecting it? If yes, "ActiveSetup" used by the
installer to set it up may be misbehaving. Its supposed to set it up only
once after first login. The installer adds a reg key
"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Active
Setup\Installed Components\OpenVPN_UserSetup\" with a few entries --  the
one named "StubPath" is the command run for each user on first login. At
that point it  also adds or updates the reg key "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Active
Setup\Installed Components\OpenVPN_UserSetup\.." to indicate setup for that
user is done. Checking those keys may help find what is causing this.
