What error are you getting?
Missing file, not a valid Win32 application, page fault, memory fault, ???

FWIW, there is no valid Windows XP file that I know of starts with winsys16

Only references I've found are that that file is part of a trojan or virus.

HTH

My guess is you have remnants leftover from this worm: http://www.2-spyware.com/remove-hitapop.html. You can click "Report" in your post and request this to be moved to the Malware Removal forum.
