I have personally done a bit of research on this , although I am not even near an answer yet , it could be possible w32nimda.enc virus which is a backdoor.topic virus. Gonna do some research on that virus to make sure
I am sorry to say my friend, Your not alone in this fight with this stupid error messages. However nobody from my online resources has been able to fix it although there seems to be a big thing about it in chinesse as well. But I can't read chinesse so. Basically I sudjest to run that virus scan. Most of the users that have this problem, experience it running a large variety of programs from microsoft office to PHP on apache.
That virus detector site i sent you to should pick it up, make sure it scans the whole harddrive as the actual virus can be located elsewhere. It could have changed your registry settings and trys to open this non-existing file in a spot where the program will just crash because all files in that directory are required. I am pretty sure your looking at a virus. If that virus protection software does find the virus. You can simply click the delete button once it is done and that should fix it. however it will delete all your infected applications. and I am pretty sure by the looks of it that your Counter-Strike has been infected.

I presume XP has a similar setup.
to empty manually, go to
C:\\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\(your name)RAMI~1\LOCAL SETTINGS\Temp
Some of these folders may be hidden.
