How do I wipe a registry entry on startup?

I have Windows 7 SP1

I need software for the automatic removal of some traces from the
registry on startup.

For example, I want to remove this:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\U SBSTOR

It can't be loaded into CCleaner, but is there any other software to
handle this?

Are you always logging on under an admin-level account so you have the
permissions needed to edit the registry? If so, you can always save
..reg files containing what settings you want and use the command line
"regedit.exe /s <file>.reg" as a startup item (HKU or HKLM Run registry
item, login script, Startup item, scheduled task to run on login). If
you just want to delete/add/change items from the command line, use
reg.exe and its commands. Run "reg.exe /?" to get help on it.

Exactly and can be loaded via...

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Once

or

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Thanks, I'll try this.
