Please can someone help?
I am getting the following message on startup and don't know how to get rid
of it.
"Error loading C:\WINDOWS\System32\stwkald.dll The specified module could
not be found"
Thanks
A Google search for "stwkald.dll" brought up nothing. This generally
means the file is malware (although not always). If you have recently
run spyware removal tools and got rid of some malware, the tools left a
startup entry. If you haven't run any spyware removal tools, it would be
a good idea to do so.
To stop the error at startup, use the System Configuration Utility:
Start>Run>msconfig [enter]
This brings up the System Configuration Utility. Look on the Startup tab
and find the probable culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, Apply
and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but the next time you
do you'll get a dialog saying you've used the Utility. Just tick the box
that says in effect, "don't bother me about this again".
And here are some general malware removal steps:
