Click OK, the box dissappears, and all seems normal... Google has not been as helpful as usual with this frustrating error message. Brand new last year with full and updated Norton 360 premium. an incomplete uninstall? failed virus / worm? malware / spyware? Any help much appreciated CD HP dv3 2.1 duo, 4g ram Win 7 home premium.

Get 2.04 Install / run this, then click on scan the system and save a log. Copy and paste the log here	Speedy Gonzales (78)

More research hinted that this dll is associated with ms mesenger which I uninstalled around the same time as the problem started. I have manually deleted the "winerv32.rom" line from the registry, and it has fixed the issue. Playing with the registry is Scary Stuff!! Cheers	CD01 (16190)

I had another case of rundll error message before, tried cleaning with antivirus, CC cleaneer, but it was till there. I had no choice but do a reformat. I was not even able to delete it, saying it is being used by a program.	johnmeigharl (16178)
