Error Message: Windows cannot find 'box,box,box,box,box'

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
version 5.1.2600
service pack 2.0

On start-up, I get a series of paired error message that look like:
First error message: Windows cannot find 'box,box,box... (where box is
actually a graphic rectangle charater)
Second error message: Could not load or run 'box,box,box...' in the
registry. Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference
to it in the registry.

This happens every time I start and I can click through to continue - but
obviously something's off and I'd like to fix it. Though I'm not crazy about
editing the registry, I'd do that to fix the problem, but I don't know what
to search for.

Help?
