annoying start up message

[michaelj]

I am using Vista Home Basic, and when ever I do a restart, I get a message
that says:"Could not run C"\Windows\System32\winupdate.exe. specified in the
registry. Make sure the file exists on your computer, or remove reference to
it in the registry.
Can't find the file in the computer, nor the registry.
Don't know how to get rid of the message, or what it means.

Thank you
