System32 folder opens on startup, post reg key contents

I am a Windows XP user. Something went wrong with this PC and now every time it starts, System32 folder opens up itself. I tried searching regarding this on web and came through a MS KB article, here it is http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=170086. I read entire article thrice but dint understood anything. Hence I came here to and hope someone can help me out with the same.

For more information about my issue, here are the registry keys that I think are problematic:
