Have I really been hijacked?

Heather Lee

Intro: I have problems with my search pages in IE6.0 SP1. I think I have
been hijacked by malicious software run from evil web-pages. Somebody
suggested to run Hijack-This to get rid of the problem.

So I tried to run Hijack-This downloaded from (
http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/ )
but all I get is a message that says,
"Can't find the necessary DLL file MSVBVM60.DLL" !

Is this file a legitimate part of Windows 98 or is this a sign that I really
have been hijacked?

If MSVBVM60.DLL is a legitimate windows file how do I reinstall it?
Or, :-( do I need to reinstall the entire Win98?

Any help is appreciated
Thanks H

It is a Microsoft Visual Basic 6 runtime DLL. Do a search for it on
Google.

Here's the dll http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvbvm60
And try Spybot S&D www.security.kolla.de update after installing.
