This looks like the remains of a virus or malware attack that's been partly
removed......
try this

Start|Run
type
MSCONFIG
click OK

Click on the Startup tab
look in there for an entry for Regsvr32.... (probably in the right-hand
column)
Uncheck that entry
Click Apply
Click CleanUp
Click OK - and reboot on request

See if that fixes it.
