System 32 folder at bootup

[Linda]

For some reason, when I boot my system the last thing
that appears on my screen is the system 32 folder. This
must be closed each time. It causes no real problem, it
just shouldn't appear. Any thoughts??

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. It can also
be caused by an entry in these same keys that starts with a " / ."
