Question about 'Startup Programs Run Twice When Windows Loads'

I have a question about Startup Programs Run Twice When Windows Loads:

I'm keen to fix this problem on my PC (Vista x64) but there's a couple of things in the article I would be grateful for clarification. Firstly in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ explorer\ User Shell Folders the article says 'correct the values', but doesn't say what to? Mine is currently set to "%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup". Secondly the latter part says to adjust the common startup value in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ explorer\ User Shell Folders, but "common startup" doesn't exist, am I supposed to create it?
