Hi

For your "16 bit subsystem error"/Autoexec.nt issue in that post:

Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit
Windows-based program
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;324767


Could be caused a trojan or something similar, e.g.
TrojanDownloader.Win32.Dia.a, more about this here:

Also, AVAST (antivirus software) can be the cause
