Problems installing programmes

Ladies and Gents,
I aquired a worm a few weeks ago which I think Ive gotten rid of, however ever since i had it I seem to have problems installing certain prgrammes.
When I try i get the following message:
16 bit Windows Subsystem
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.
This is getting a tad annoying so any help to solve this problem would be appreciated.
All the best
