system 32

[Guest]

Everytime I start my computer up, my system 32 folder comes up. It's been
happening for a while now. I tried going through the registry, but I stopped
because I didn't want to further damage my computer. Does anybody have any
other suggestions or comments?

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 " / ."
