"Activation.exe - Entry point not found" error box

[John]

I'm getting the following error box on Windows XP boot-
up: "Activation.exe -- Entry point not found. The
procedure entry point ?tofdjpn@@ya?
aw4_tagtristateboal@@xy could not be located in the
dynamic link library mnysl.dll."

If I just click on the box (to get rid of it), the
computer appears to function normally.

I'd be interested in options to cope with the problem
(and how serious is the problem -- is it worth trying to
fix it?) -- especially options that don't involve having
to do a full restore.

Thanks,

Offhand it looks like a trojan trying to be called in the registry. In
any case, no need for re-installing.
