When i start my computer with XP home, it loads up normally, however it
always loads the system32 folder in browser format, does anyone know how to
remove it from the desktop with out deleting or having to continually close
the folder.

Thanks

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.
