Unable to run program after successful insatllatiion

After I have successfully installed a MYOB accounting software, I was unable
to run the program. The error message was as such -
c/winfow/system32/autoExec.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS
DOS & Microsoft Windows application.I would be grateful if someone can help
me with the above problem. I am currently running on Window XP Home Edition.
Thank you very much.

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.

Replace the standard version of autoexec.nt/config.nt by copying a backup copy
located in %windir%\repair\ to %windir%\system32\
(NB: %windir% is typically C:\Windows)

Start>Run and type in this without the quotes:
"cmd /c copy /y %windir%\repair\autoexec.nt %windir%\system32"

note:-
Also can be caused by a Trojan installing a file windupdater.exe and
creating registry entries for that file.

AVAST (free antivirus software) can be the cause if SP2 is installed:
