Hi S. Sengupta
I've just run CWShreader and spybot search and destroy in safe mode. They
both came up with a couple of problems and apparently fixed them. However I
then scanned with Norton and it came up with the same problem. Being 2 files
both named rundlg32.dll that it can not remove. I've look in 'Add and Remove'
but SBSoft is not there. Any other ideas would be greatfully recieved.
