    See if you have any folders or shortcuts to folders in your startup directory.

    See MSDN.
    Search HKEY_CURRENT_USER or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and Run keywords.

    What part of the post you do not understand?
    I will try to make it simpler:
    Search for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" keyword or
    search for "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" keyword and
    search for "Run" keyword.

    Better yet:

    Choose Search tab in MSDN help.
    Type "HKEY_CURRENT_USER near run" in a search box.
    Press List Topics button.

    Or

    Choose Search tab in MSDN help.
    Type "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE near run" in a search box.
    Press List Topics button.
