I deleted a file called system32.exe because it was a worm. Everytime I start my computer up i get this error. How can I get rid of it?

Do a search for that file name in your registry, it is in one of the run statements there.

Erm if it's a popup error.. wait I know how to fix this! Goto: Start>Run>msconfig ... then click the "startup" tab, then uncheck that file then save and reboot!

The msconfig suggestion may show that entry, like he said.

If your not familiar with looking around in your registry, I hesitate to be the one to try and explain using it to you, since deleting the wrong thing could make your system not boot.
