Error C:/WINDOWS/Downloaded Program Files/bridge.dll

[94305anonymous]

Accidentally I delete a file. When WINDOWS look for it,
this message appears:

"Error C:/WINDOWS/Downloaded Program Files/bridge.dll
The specific module could not be found."

Anyone can tell me how to retrive the missing file?

Bridge.dll is _not_ a valid Windows file, it's part of
LoudMarketing's spyware.

http://pestpatrol.com/pestinfo/l/loudmarketing.asp

To deal with issues caused by any sort of "adware" and/or
"spyware,"such as Gator, Comet Cursors, Smiley Central, Xupiter,
Bonzai Buddy, or KaZaA, and their remnants, that you've deliberately
(but without understanding the consequences) installed, two products
that are quite effective (at finding and removing this type of
scumware) are Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de and SpyBot Search &
Destroy from www.safer-networking.org/. Both have free versions.
It's even possible to use SpyBot Search & Destroy to "immunize" your
system against most future intrusions. I use both and generally
perform manual scans every week or so to clean out cookies, etc.

Additionally, manual removal instructions for the most common
varieties of scumware are available here:
