>From the error messages, it looks to me that one or more of the Windows system files / executables have become corrupted (probably caused by a virus). Assuming that you've done a malware/virus cleanup already, try running SFC /Scannow with the Windows XP CD in the drive. SFC should fix all the missing and corrupt files.

Microsoft Windows XP - System File Checker (sfc):
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/system_file_checker.mspx

See section "Free Online Virus Scanners" in this page: http://aumha.org/secure.php and pick a virus scanner from the list. (RAV and TrendMicro are proving good) and complete the online scan.
