System32 folder.

System32 folder opens automatically every time I long on
to my computer. The computer has two user and guest. The
two users are password protected. The folder opens only
when I long in the non-restricted account. This happens
in a XP professional SP1 equiped machine. This has always
happened, it is bothersome, so I have tolerated.

Here's the fix:

That's a corrupted entry in one of the "Run" keys in your registry:
System32 Folder Opens When Logging on to Windows XP, Windows 2000, or
Windows NT 4.0

Hi,

This is a known issue for owners of an SB Audigy 2 sound card. Re-enable
the item in MSConfig.

Then see www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 260, Left column for a
small utility that will correct this for you. The problem is caused by a
leading space before the /L:ENG. This causes the problem, the script
corrects it.

If this is not the case, see:

System32 Folder Opens When Logging on to Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=170086

Verify that all the values in these keys do not contain any incorrect,
incomplete, or null entries (such as ""). These values can be checked here:
Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
