Unhappy Whats the problem??!!

I have downloaded AVG free virus protection, after winxp sp2. Iget the following message window. "16 bit Windows Subsystem" (label of the box) "C:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt. THe system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'close' to terminate the application." (inside the msg window) What is the deal with this. I did have Sygate firewall previously on my computer but later removed it do to the lagging of my internet connection. any help possible is greatly appreciated.
