missing dll file

[Cliff]

On startup, I recently started geeting the message that
the "msiefr40.dll" file was missing. I select ok and
performance doesn't appear to be affected, but I would
like to understand why I started getting the message, and
where I can find the file to replace it. I looked at the
Windows XP disk, and it appears the only way to find it
is to reload the entire Windos XP system. Any thoughts,
suggestions, ....

The file is part of BrowserAid (Featured Results), a malicious browser
helper object. Read about it here:

Tom's answer is good, but his link doesn't get you where
you need to go. Go here, and click on "Parasite" Removal
in the body of the text. That will take you to extensive
information about BrowserAid and how to remove all of its
variants.
