Pesky Autostart

A pesky autostart app has recently been added to my Android tablet, and as I can't identify it I can't delete it. I obviously clicked on a link somewhere which brought on this misery. I'd be very pleased if someone could help me give this autostart what it needs.

Symptoms:

Icon appears on the desktop. When clicked it launches a youtube video.

If selected the icon can be moved over a delete icon which it helpfully provides - and when dropped onto the delete icon this pesky app disappears - and comes back later.

I just want to identify the pesky autostart so that I can delete it. I'm guessing there must be a list which when android starts it launches those processes. But I don't know how to list the autostart processes.

Try using revounistaller from play store,free version should do,also has a permissions part.Dont forget to include system apps,it might have tricked the tablet into thinking its built in,hence the return.
