System 32 Window Opens On Start-up

Hi All,

I recenly realised that the Windows "System 32" window was opening on
startup, I don't knwo why this is the case. I don't believe my computer is
infected in any way, and I only reformatted and re-installed XP less than 2
weeks ago, so I think generally my computer should be in good health. I
recently installed MSN and Yahoo IM on my computer, is it possible the
problem is related to any of those programs?

Anyone have any soloutions for this?

I have tried:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;170086

I couldn't really find any values that matched up with what this article
refers to.

CB.

Information by Bruce Chambers:

This can be caused by a blank entry, such as can be left behind by an
incomplete program removal, in the:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and/or
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run keys.

And from MVP Kelly Theriot's site, line 260 on the right-hand site:
