Startup problems

[b_iceman]

When users log on two messages display. They say that
winnt/bsx5.dll and winnt/bs3.dll cannot be found. Anyone
know where I can find these so I can be rid of the errors?

I don't think you want to restore these files - they are spyware.
Google lists 38 hits against them, and here is a recipe of how
to deal with the problem:

Download and run Ad-Aware and/or Spybot. I use them both...

Good Luck.

Not sure what you mean, doc...
But... have Ad-Aware set to run at start-up, deep scan the registry and
automatically clean & close, but skip scanning within archives so doesn't
wipe out spybot's quarantines....

Then run SpyBot about twice a week to catch what Ad-Aware misses... but
takes longer to scan.

SpyBot is really quite powerful... and has a very simple & useful GUI to
control what opens at start-up...
