Hi Weet,
RunDLL (or RunDLL32) is an executable that loads another DLL and calls an
exported function from that DLL. It is just another way to execute code.
In your situation, it sounds like RunDLL is attempting to load image.dll and
call a function in the same way but Windows cannot find image.dll. The
first you should do is see if image.dll actually exists on your system
drive. The next thing is to try and figure out what is causing RunDLL to
attempt to call into image.dll. When Windows attempts to load a DLL it will
normally try loading it from the Windows directory first, then
Windows\System32, then from directories that it knows about from the PATH
environment variable.
Hope this helps,
Fred Nava
