Default System32 window at logon

My system seems to run fine but recently, every time I log
on to Windows the System32 window pops up. I close the
window and everything is fine but why does this keep
happening? I'm running XP Home Ed. My system has a AMD 650
processor, 320MB Ram, 20gig hard drive. Any advice is
appreciated. Thanks.

"This behavior can occur if a null, incomplete, or damaged entry exists in the registry".

Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and scroll down
to Item No. 260. In the right column, click on "System32 Folder Opens
Upon Boot". Download this repair file and then run the repair.
