i am receiving two dll errors on start up:

error loading c:\windows\system32\aelqhmiy.dll
specified module could not be found

error loading c:\windows\system32\gmatufgg.dll
specified module could not be found
does anyone know what these mean and how to fix
 
Check for them here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]

If present, export the key then delete the entries
c:\windows\system32\aelqhmiy.dll and
c:\windows\system32\gmatufgg.dll

You can run msconfig and then go to the startup tab uncheck all entries,
reboot, if error is gone do the same except check only one entry at a
time doing a reboot for each time, until you get the error and then
you'll find out which entry is causing the problem.
 
You've most likely got a ZLOB infection, accompanied by its friends Vundo,
SDBot and some sort of rootkit "protecting" them all.

Run a thorough check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to

http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7,
http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.

and removed all kinds of spyware and couple of viruses also thats when errors

I'd still recommend posting your HijackThis log in an appropriate forum for
review, just in case.

If you were as badly infected as it seems you were, I would not be so
sure that all is fine now. This kind of stuff can be very difficult to
get rid of, and it's not usually as simple as just running an
anti-virus program.
