Looks like you got hit by some viruses.

Try this: copy explorer.exe from C:\Windows to a temporary directory C:\temp and 
rename it to other name, for example, explrr.exe and then run c:\temp\explrr.exe
You should be able to get the desktop.

If the renamed file works then you can do the regedit and  rename the following key 
to what ever name you like except "explorer.exe":
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution 
Options\explorer.exe

Then reboot your system and you should get your desktop back.  Delete c:\temp\explrr.exe 
afterward as it's just a test.
