Hi there...
Try the following:
Click Start, Run, and type:
regedit
In left-hand pane click the plus signs in front of each of the
following:
HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windos\CurrentVersion|Run
Once you get to Run and click on it to highlight it on the left...to the
right you may see:
image REG_SZ rundll32 c:\Windows\image.dll,install
delete image.dll,install

Also...while still in the registry editor:
Click plus signs in the left-hand pane to expand each of the following:
HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\explorer\run

When you click to highlight run in the left-hand pane, in the
right-hand pane you may find:
image REG_SZ rundll32 c:\Windows\image.dll,install
delete image.dll,install

Close the registry editor.
You also may want to run the free programs:
Lavasoft AdAware and
Spybot S&D
(capturing any spyware, browser hijackers, and many other problems on
your system)
Keep updated Anti-Virus software.
Use firewall.
May also want to run a program to detect trojans etc...such as:
The Cleaner
