System 32

[Guest]

Everytime I boot up my system32 folder opens, whem I close it, it gives a
disk error message with (cancel, retry, continue). After I hit cancel 3
times it moves on with no more problems. Until I boot up again

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 " / ."

Just had the same problem with an infected machine, running Adaware fixed
it. I suppose it was partially removed adware/spyware
