That's spyware or some other type of malware. Did it state that it
couldn't load the file? If so, it's possible some malware was deleted
by your a/v software, but the reference to the file was not removed from
the registry.
Click Start, Run, type REGEDIT, click OK. Press the Home key, press F3,
type the name of the file into the search pane. Click "Find Next", and
when located, delete the reference to the file. Press F3 to continue
the search.
You can click File, Export, and save the entry to the Desktop. If you
remove it and there's a problem, double-click the .reg file you exported
to the Desktop and it'll be added to the registry again. You can create
a restore point before editing the registry too.
You could click Start, Run, type MSCONFIG, click OK, click the StartUp
tab, and deselect the item(s). When you restart the computer, you will
be warned that you're running in the Diagnostic mode; click to not alert
you again, and OK out. You won't see the message again. But I think
it's best to just remove the references from the registry.
WOW thank you for prompt reply Elmo but what is the Home key please?
Yea, it stated that it couldn't load the file. Please help
The Home key is on the keyboard and it moves you to the beginning of the
registry before the search, so the whole registry will be searched.
