Registry closes after 10 seconds

Hello Ozzu,

I have a problem with a Windows XP SP2 system that has demonstrated several irregularities. Regedit will open and after 10 seconds it would close automatically. Additionally, after doing a Google search, I would click on a link and end up going to a random website. It doesnt happen everytime but enough to get my attention. Additionally, chkdsk doesnt run after rebooting. I ran Spyware Doctor in Safe Mode and all the problems mentioned happened in Safe Mode as well.

Ive run the following programs in order to try and find a virus, adware or spyware:

Spyware Doctor 6.0.0.386
http://www.trendmicro.com/housecall
EZTrust 7.0 Virus Scan
sfc /scannow
Advanced System Care 3

Ive also followed the directions from your "Steps to Take Before Posting":

I went to Add/Remove Programs and did not find any of the listed applications. I also went through and removed any programs that seemed out of place
Ran Spybot - Search and Destroy in Safe Mode - found a few things but all were cookies
Rebooted to Safe Mode
Ran Ad-Aware and only found one cookie
Rebooted to Desktop
Ran Regedit again and window closed after 10 seconds
