Windows 98 Registry Checker

[dennco4]

I am having a problem with one of my computers. Every other morrning one of my users gets the following message on her machine:

Windows Registry Checker
Windows encoutered an error accessing the system registry.
Windows will now restart and repair the system registry for you.

After I hit OK, the computer restarts and fixes the registry error. The computer then boots up and is fine. If you run the Registry Checker from System Information it will tell you that all is fine with the system registry. If you shut down the machine and then reboot after a few minutes it boots up fine. It even boots up fine the next day after being off for the entire night. However on the day after that you will get the error message all over agian. Does any one have any suggestions or ideas on how I may be ablee to get rid of the message for good? I will appreciate any ideas or suggestions that you may offer. Thanks in advance.
Steve

Have you run a virus scan lately?
There's an OLD trojan out there that induces similar behavior:

There's also a suggested fix here:
