Missing 4 .dll files

I've found four damaged .dll files and cannot go through Safe Mode to scan
for spyware as another suggested I do. (I was told these files were spyware
elsewhere, but if essentioal Windows files are damaged, Safe Mode will not
work. As this was the case, apparently they are not all spyware.)

These following are the damaged files:

MediaPassX.dll
CPCScan.dll
IUCTL.dll
YSBActiveX.dll

How to I get these back? The MediaPassX were done within a Dowloaded
Program File.
The IUCTL.dll is among the Windows\System 32\ files! This definitely NOT
spyware.

Please help me to replace these damaged files.
 
Hi

Try running the following command from Start>Run first:

sfc /scannow

You may need to have your XP CD to hand.

YSBActiveX.dll - would also suggest a Downloaded Program File - if it's not
spyware.

How exactly did you determine that these files were damaged.

These following are the damaged files:

MediaPassX.dll

Advertising spyware. See

CPCScan.dll

This appears to be from www.crucial.com and may be part of their
system scanner that checks your computer to see what type of RAM it
uses.
IUCTL.dll
Click to expand...

"Windows Update Client Control"

YSBActiveX.dll
Spyware.

You don't want MediaPassX.dll or YSBActiveX.dll.

To replace/repair IUCTL.DLL try going to the Windows Update site. It
should reinstall the software if there are problems.


Good luck
