Chinese search program in my startup items list + weird symbols. Someone tell me what they are?

I'm running Windows XP in a machine virtual parallels. I ran msconfig and found strange items in my startup items.

It looks like Chinese script (sort of) or a language unknown to symbol. I unchecked in the startup list and reboot I got the message (resembling a key symbol) is not found. Again I ran msconfig and recheckedthe points. Upon restarting, I got an error not found a (followed by a black solid circle) as a list bullet

I returned to a previous snapshot and it's still there. I post a .gif image if possible. Does anyone have an idea what this kind of thing? It is part of the virtual machine programs?

Hi XTOMX,.

It seems that your computer is infected with spyware or malware.

(a) I recommend you to run a scan for viruses online from the link below. If you have antivirus software installed on your computer, please install the latest update of the software to make it work properly.

(b) you can also run a virus on the computer scan & check if the problem persists.
