Hi
When i start my computer I get the following message "C:\Windows|system32|xlibgfl254.dll is not a valid image".
Following advice given to someone else with a similar problem I have run "eventvwr" and it would appear that there are a number of errors in application folder relating to application errors/iexplorer. What do I need to do to remove?

regards and thanks Kevin

Your computer is infected with a trojan and you need to clean it up.

General malware removal steps:
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

Include scanning with either Sysclean or Multi_AV, plus AVG Anti-Spyware (formerly Ewido - http://www.ewido.net/en/) and follow instructions to do all scans in Safe Mode.

When all else fails, run HijackThis and post your log in one of the specialty forums listed at the link above (not here, please).

Standard caveat: If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA). Please be aware that not all local shops are skilled at removing malware and even if they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will need to be clean-installed. Have all your data backed up before you take the machine into a shop.
