Trying adding it back to the Startup Items and then log out. Log back in and remove it. Sometimes that helps. If not, try running some permissions on the drive. And if that fails, try trashing the plist file that is found in /YourAccountName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginitems.plist

How about ctrl+click on the icon on the dock and dessellect open at login?

Or try deleting the plist file for login items and then adding your necessary ones again?
