I'm really not sure what LimeWire would have to do with your problem and

Before you try System Restore you can try two more Spyware removal
programs
and see it one will pick it up.

Good morning,

Was wondering if you could help me with something else. Since I've fixed all
the viruses, malware, etc., I'm getting this message when I start up:

Error loading: C:\Windows\System32\cpmsky.dll
The specified module could not be found

Any idea what this is? Should I be worried?

Thanks again,

Hi Donna,

Just for the purpose of looking, we will delete the line later if there.
Do the following....

Click Start, in the "Start Search" at the bottom type: Regedit
You will see it appear at the top, double click it and UAC will prompt you
for permission, select Continue.

Now, look for the following branch.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, just to the left of that name you need to click the
little triangle to expand the branch. Now look for SOFTWARE then Microsoft
then WINDOWS then CurrentVersion. Under CurrentVersion you now need to look
down that key for the RUN Key. Click on the RUN key to highlight it then in
the right hand pane see if you have the follow String Value.

[PostSetupCheck] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Rundll32.exe
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\cpmsky.dll" DllStart

If it's there or not close Registry Editor and post back what you saw.

Hi,

I was afraid so :( it's a nasty.

Go here and download HijackThis 1.99.1
http://majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

You can choose The Authors Site is fine for downloading.

Run it and look for this line exactly.......
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [PostSetupCheck] C:\WINDOWS\System32\Rundll32.exe
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\cpmsky.dll" DllStart

Check the box to remove it, reboot and post back.
