Don't shout!!! :o)
I had the same thing.
You could try looking here. This seems to be caused by a virus/trojan or
Avast AV Software.

You can put back the standard version of autoexec.nt by copying a backup
copy held in windows\repair to windows\system32.

Hope this helps :o)

Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit
Windows-based program

Could be caused a trojan or something similar, e.g.
TrojanDownloader.Win32.Dia.a, more about this here:

Also, AVAST (antivirus software) can be the cause if you
have WinXP SP2 installed:
