I have windows XP home and it has been working fine. But
for the last few weeks I am getting a message at startup
that says:

error loading:

c:\Progra~1\Common~2\toolbar\CNBabe.dll

specified module cannot be found.


Any suggestions???

Spyware/Adware, possibly installed by Kazza or some other applications. Try
running a program like Ad Aware or Spybot to clean this up :-)

It's Scumware. CNBabe.dll is CommonName Toolbar

===============================================
This is from tha Lavasoft forums quote:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go to Start > Run, and type in "msconfig", click OK > Startup and look for the
entries for CommonName, CNBABE.EXE., cnform.exe, BabeIE.dll, CNBarIE.dll.... if
any of them are there, uncheck them, click OK, then reboot.

If you don't find all of them there, click Ctrl\Alt\Del and look for them in the
window that appears, if you find any, highlight and End Task on them. That will
ensure they are not running prior to the scan.

Now go to your Add\Remove programs and look for CommonName and uninstall it.
If you happen to see any of those others above there delete them also.

Do a file search for w3k*.tmp and delete all that you find.

Run Adaware.

When it's done choose "mark all for removal"

IMPORTANT: Make sure that you choose to make a BACKUP before removing anything.

Click "Continue" to remove the nasties.

When it is finished I would reboot and run Ad-aware again to make sure all is
gone.
