This is almost 100% caused by an active VIRUS.
There are a couple ways to get rid of it - if you still can't run it in
Safe Mode, in safe mode, open Task Manager, kill as many processes as
you can, then kill explorer - this will kill your desktop, then do a CAD
and using task manager open regedit, you can also open your AV software,
get an update, and run it.
When I've seen the virus that does this, I've had to removed bogus (even
good looking name) folders manually, remove lots of registry entries,
but it still takes a number of passes with good AV software.
