Windows Defender scanning at every startup

I have been running windows 8 pro for the last couple of months. It is

fully updated, and has been running very well. All of a sudden at every

startup, when I go to the windows desktop, the disk activity is high,

keyboard and mouse response is very slow or non-existant. Starting task

manager shows antimalware scan using approx 30% of processor. How can I

stop this scan from running at every startup?
