missing dll

[Manfred]

My computer was loaded with ad-ware and was turning into
a turtle. Then I read on the Microsoft website about ad-
aware to use to clean up the mess. I downloaded it and
it worked. However it took one file too many. It is
called C:\Windows\System32\bridge.dll. My question is:
How do I get it back? When booting up I get the message
that the file is missing. Also my printer quit working
at the same time. Is that part of the problem?

Help is appreciated.

Hi Manfred

You don't want bridge.dll back - it is a part of some piece of spyware:

Bridge.dll" is a remnant of a spyware file and should be deleted.

Download Ad-Aware 6.0 and scan your PC for the presence of spyware:
