DLL Error

[Bill Beshlian]

Hello,

I have recently done some cleaning up of a laptop that was full of viruses,
malware, spyware, you name it. Everything runs as advertised after I ignore
a Run DLL error that pops up on start up. Here is the error,"Error loading
C:\WINDOWS\system32\bxljvcyd.dll". I ran loaded my registry cleaner progam
on it and it did not fix this. I believe what has happened is the .dll is
part of a virus or malware program that was not completely removed. I have
the recovery disk for this laptop an it appears the only way I can do an OS
repair is if I do a complete restore, which I am trying to avoid. Has anyone
seen this before? TIA...

Download and run this program from Microsoft.

AutoRuns for Windows v9.0
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

Look on the Everything page for an entry that includes bxljvcyd.dll in the Image
Path column.
Remove the check mark from the box next to this entry.
Close Autoruns.
Restart your computer to make sure the error message is no longer displayed.
You can go back to Autoruns and delete the entry if successful.

Just to be on the safe side, you might consider taking steps to make sure your
system is virus free. Here's a site with general instructions on cleaning a
computer.

Thanks. The Autoruns program is great. I did a virus scan, malware and
spyware scan and all is good.

Your note implies that you're pretty technical, that being the case you
might want to check out AutoRuns
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/Autoruns.mspx)
to see where the suspicious DLL is being launched from. Windows has several
ways to automatically launch programs at bootup, AutoRuns makes it easy to
examine all of them. If you see an entry with that file name you should be
able to see where in the registry the entry to autostart it is.
