Those files are components of malware (virus, spyware, adware) infections. :(

Thanx 4 ur suggestion, i have solved this problem, those files were not deleting, thankfully i had another OS installed, i booted into it and deleted these files from WINNT-System32 folder and cleaned the startup entries using Reg Cleaner

I'm glad you were able to delete the malicious files and their associated "Run" entries in the Registry, but I'd suggest that you now do a couple of full anti-virus/anti-spyware scans to clean out the rest of the components of the infections. These days, infections are rarely comprised of a single file and a single simple adddition to the Registry.
