Pretty sure that has something to do with it.
Can you go to run msconfig another time, clicking Apply and then restarting. Perhaps things will turn back to normal then.

That you get that message from Ad Aware is normal, you are making that registry change yourself by selecting "don't show this message or launch..." on the msconfig window.

So after selecting "don't show this message or launch..." then allow the registry change in Ad Aware and it shouldn't popup anymore.
