error on start up

[lennyk]

Just recently my computer has started displaying an error
when I log in and load my profile. It says RUNDLL in the
window and then says :
error loadingC:\Windows\downloaded program file\bridge.dll
the specified module could not be found.

What is this and how can I stop it from coming up every
time. It allows me to click " OK" and then goes away but
I would like it to go away forever.

Running windows XP sp1

You've picked up some spyware. If the spyware has already been removed, the
missing file message is due to a reference to bridge.dll that was left
behind. That reference needs to be manually removed. Description of this
spyware and steps for manual removal can be found here:

You have spyware on your computer. Remove spyware with Spybot Search &
Destroy from www.security.kolla.de and Ad-aware from
www.lavasoftusa.com. Be sure to update these programs before running
them. These programs are free, so run them both since they complement
each other. It is best to run antivirus and spyware removal tools in
Safe Mode.
