QUALCOMM Atheros killer network manager at startup on XPS L521x Windows 7

I have had this XPS L521x  laptop for several years.   It has a Windows 7 operating system. Starting yesterday, every time I start the computer, the "Qualcomm Atheros Killer Network Manager" starts, and I have to stop what I am doing and close it.  I tried to uninstall this program, but the Windows Uninstall program won't do it.  How can I stop the program from opening at startup, or uninstall it?

You could also try to disable the program in system configuration. Please click Start menu, type msconfig onto search box and then press enter or select the msconfig.exe program link. In the System Configuration, select Startup tab and then uncheck the program box that you would like to prevent from starting when Windows starts.  Click OK to save changes when finished.

I'd suggest you download the free version of Revo uninstaller or download the free version of CCleaner. Both programs are more powerful uninstallers than the windows uninstaller.
