Logfile of HijackThis v1.97.7 Scan saved at 2:25:27 PM, on 5/1/2006 Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.5346.0005) Starting just a few days ago when I boot up my laptop, I get the following message "The Procedure entry point GetProcessImageFileNameW could not be located in the dynamic link library PSAPI.dll". I haven't used all my programs lately but what I have seems to work okay. Could this be the beginning of a problem and is there any way to remove the message without messing up my computer? Thanks for your help

I think your MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 ……IE 7 beta right?

If so…..this is probably a bug with the IE 7 …….
You may have to revert back to IE 6…….
The problem is that IE7 is still in beta, which means that there are bugs still to be worked out. That doesn't mean for sure that it's your problem, but I would still uninstall IE7 and go back to using IE6 to see if that solves it.
Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."
Click "Add or Remove Programs."
Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
Scroll down the list to "Windows XP – Software Updates," select "Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview," and then click "Change/Remove." (If you are running Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview – March 20 or later, it is not necessary to check "Show Updates.")
Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 is on this link
Download Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1

Thanks Juliet, your suggestion worked. I removed IE 7 Beta 2, which reverted to ver. 6.0 sp2. When I rebooted, no error message. Thanks again,
