You can fix it. The default should be:
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=explorer.exe

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"

Log looks good. Any other issues?
