Henry,
There is such a thing as bad or poorly written software. I have a program,
PAPER PORT, that crashes at least once every time I use it. I have
reinstalled it twice and hasn't helped.
Look around in your Brother printer program and see if you can set it not to
start when Windows starts. At least that way it'll only bother you when you
try to use the printer and not every time you boot your machine.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
