kernel32.dll

[damon]

My internet explorer seems to not be acting properly. I
keep getting a kernel32.dll pop-up window when I open
explorer. Any advice as to how I am able to solve this
problem would be great.
Thanks y'all,
Damon

Damon,
Possibly caused by an adware, spyware, parasite program.
See:
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Run CWShredder, Ad-aware and Spybot, referenced on that page.

A legitimate program running in the background may be causing this. Disable
(for diagnostic purposes) programs such as pop-up blockers, security,
anti-virus, third party toolbars, etc. Also... notorious for causing
problems- Gator, Kazaa and some others.

There are other possibilities for KERNEL32 errors, including corrupted or
outdated video drivers
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers.htm#kernel32
Start at Control Panel> Display> Settings> Advanced for information on your
video adapter/driver including (possibly) a link to the manufacturer's
website.
