I have had a strange thing happen over the last few months, whenever I install office xp on a nt machine it opens the symbol font automatically when you log in. Any ideas? This has happened on multiple machine and seems very bizzare not to mention anoying.
 
This might help:

Open registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

and

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Verify that all the values in these keys do not contain any incorrect, incomplete, or null entries (such as "").

Incorrect values can make System folders pop up.
