Stop starting your computer.
Sorry... couldn't resist.
Specifically, what Win32 operating system are you using? 3.1, 95, 98, or what?
oops... yeah.... what os I'm using would help huh?
win XP professional
Whoa... XP has a sys32 folder... who knew?
Well obviously I'm not going to be that knowledgeable about stopping the folder from showing up in XP since I didn't even know it was there, but have you checked the obvious places like your startup folder? And then there's the registry (regedit.exe) - but if you go poking around in there, just... you know... be careful...
Sorry I couldn't be more specific - I've only ever had to do something like this on 3.1 and 95/8.
Have you installed any new software/hardware lately?

Do not surf with IE. (surf with Opera or Firefox)
Some Anti Spyware like Ad-aware or XoftSpy.
Some Antivirus like Symantec or McAfee.
Some Firewall like ZA -> Zone Alarm.

Look for these keys in your registry and after backing it up delete them:
HPPPT.EXE key, HPSJBMGR.EXE and HPPPTA.EXE.
If these keys don't exist try this:
Go to:
BACK UP THE REGISTRY.
Delete all keys BUT this one:
Key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Run
Value: SystemTray
Value Type: REG_SZ
Value Data: SysTray.exe

Just delete the system32 folder.
Run->msconfig and look at the various items under the tabs (specifically the startup tab).
