Unknown dll Errors
I have a multiple problem that I'm hoping for "simple" help with as I'm not
comfortable making Registry edits and am a semi-novice. On booting up Windows
XP: Error Loading C:\WINDOWS\system32\tlrqlswg.dll AND again for
vpvrxbct.dll.
I've had SP2 but the person I share the computer with said he installed SP3!?

I use AVG Free and Ad-Aware and that's when it started somehow. I've
scanned with several other pgms but most charge to do a complete scan and
removal. Is there a GOOD spy/malware pgm that I can run on a regular basis ?
I don't have money to be buying all kinds of regedits and such.

Secondly ... also on startup I also get an installation attempt .... Sonic
Activation Module, and to insert disc or point to proper drive/file. Anybody
got a clue on this one?

Desperately seeking solace,

Looks like you had a virus or two that were removed...
but there are still residuals left in startup.

It may end up requiring editing the registry...
but for starters ...run msconfig and see if the malware is in startup...
and if so, remove it

Do a thorough check for malware, following all of the steps at one of these
Web pages.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing programs like Messenger Plus,
whose ads for malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince
you that you owe it to the author. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along. Don't install any extras you're not sure
of.

Re: Unknown dll Errors
Thank you for response. This may sound stupid but how will I known if the
malware is there? Will it have the names that the errors are looking for?
And ... if so how do I remove them, SAFELY?
