This could have been caused by spyware/viruses. Now, what about the fix? Most registry repair programs available on the Internet are snake oil at best. I believe the best approach for you would be a complete format and re- installation of Windows. Instructions are here: http://www.cyberwalker.com/faqs/reinstall-reformat-winxp/reformat-xp-alt-method.html After you are done - Windows updates will have to be downloaded - virus scan put back on (AVG is free) - anti spyware programs (spybot search and destroy, adaware, etc put on.)

Download the freeware from this page: http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml First write down the names of the files that windows can't find and next run that program and look for the name of the files that windows can't find and uncheck the boxes.

Once you do that, someone will be able to point you to the spot in the registry that is trying to load your program. It might be easier to buy a cleaner utility or get a shareware program that will clean the registry for you. Software such as RegClean or other equivalent names are out there and available. Pretty handy tools too if you don't know exactly what you are doing. Be careful because they can also mess you up. When ever you play in the registry, you can mess things up bad, or fix things good.
