Dear: All...

Windows Defender got rid of a spyware that I picked up some how!?? :(, but now, I am still having the following issue with my system... At start up after I log in.. The following error message appears

Title of the windows is "Run DLL"
Error message : the specified module can not be found
"C:windows/system32/KhfDuTkc.dll"

I ran windows defender, and it did not pickup anything.. I also have Kaspersky and it also did not find anything..

And they won't, because the file is gone. What's left is the reference to it.


But this is one of the two files that windows defender original found as spyware..

Where can I look and fix as to what is trying to load this DLL?

Go to Start, run, type msconfig, press Enter. On the Startup tab, look for anything that includes that text. Note the location, and you can go there and remove it.
