MDOS subsytem HELP!!!!

[Guest]

When I start up my pc, I now get an error that says
16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\updmgr\updmgr.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for
running MS-DOS and microsoft windows applications. Chosse close to terminate
the application.


What does this mean? And how can I fix it??
Some one please help. I believe this is what is causing my system to just
shut down without reason.

updmgr.exe is a spyware app, running Kazaa?
tried google?
Download, update and run both Adaware and SpyBot, both free
Ensure win is updated, firewall on and you have a current AV app.
