lots of reading out there on this one, the causes can be varied and troublesome to isolate. Check this tool out, it should straighten you right out.

If you want to be more surgical, we'll need to get a userenv log from you to see what key is open by who. Sometimes this requires some hairy work to accomplish, definatly something microsoft support can assist with if thats an option for you.

I did a repair install of Windows XP and this error is gone.
