Long story short, I had an issue norton did not get rid of so I found
Microsofts scan utltiy to check viruses, registry errors etc and ran it. It
found all of the virus malware issues but now everytime I boot up I get
windows saying windows cannot find these two files: scjbgxw.dll and
twbfiajb.dll. I did a google and an ask search and came up with nothing. I
can't find out what they go with. Anybody got any ideas? Thanks

The behavior you describe is usually what happens when an antivirus or
antispyware program identifies a file as malware, deletes the file, but doesn't
clean up the mechanism that launches the malware at startup.

Here's a program from Microsoft that will help you stop the error messages.

AutoRuns for Windows v9.21
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

Once you've downloaded and extracted the files, run autoruns.exe.
Look on the Everything tab for an entry that lists scjbgxw.dll in the Image path
column.
Right click on that entry and select Search Online from the menu.
Odds are that you'll come up with an empty search. This pretty much confirms
that it was some type of malware that your scan deleted.
Uncheck the item.
Restart your computer. If you no longer see the error message, you can go back
and delete the entry in Autoruns.
Do the same for twbfiajb.dll.

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

What a great utility. It found several others besides those two and some
lines to programs no loner installed. Thanks
