DLL ERROR

Hello, A friend of mine just emailed me for help with an error message she keeps getting whenever she starts up her computer that says "ERROR LOADING C: program/myweb/1bin/mws/bar.dll". Could use help on telling her how to get rid of this if anyone knows please let me know. Thanks, Val

Go to "Add/Remove Programs", and see if "MyWebSearch Toolbar" or "MyWebSearch" is listed.

If so, remove it then reboot.

Thanks for the responds but she says there was nothing in the Add/Remove Programs list that was called "MyWebSearch Toolbar" or "MyWebSearch" Thanks, val

This item may also refer to MyWeb2.0 beta which is a new feature of Yahoo.
Ask your friend if they installed this Yahoo feature.

Also ask if an item is listed in the installed programs list of Add/remove that could be represented by the initials MWS. If something does appear, let us know what it is.

I had her to read me everything listed in Add/remove and there was not anything with the words myweb or initials MWS.

Important: Create a folder on the C: drive called C:\HJT.
You can do this by going to My Computer (Windows key+e) then double click on C: then right click and select New then Folder and name it HJT.
Download HijackThis into this folder.
