I'm not sure what your intention was by posting the above material
without alluding to a question or comment, but p_981116.exe is a patch
for DirectX 6 - so it's rather old. Others seem to have complained or
observed that it gets auto-executed because it gets placed in the
registry RUN section.

You're advised to run msconfig and remove it from the Startup list, and
furthermore to replace DirectX 6 with DirectX 9c.
