    I need help from someone running XP

    Hey guys....

    just killed a ton of spyware, my machine is now really fast, but it messed up one of my DLL files. It doesn't seem to do anything to my computer, but the error message is really annoying. I dont know much about DLL files, but I think with this one, it can be transfered from one PC to another....

    the file is named: msiefr40.dll (Looks like an Internet Explorer in French File)

    it is under: C:\Windows\System32\

    Can someone email a copy of this file to: daniel.sitar@shaw.ca

    If this wont work for some reason, can someone who knows lots about this stuff tell me? thanks!

    much appreciated

    hmm...I don't have that file in systems32. Maybe my computer doesn't speak french.

    Try re-applying the appropriate service pack for your computer.

    In this situation, I would suggest the full network installation, not the Internet installation.

    Try running the Windows File Checker, it should fix the problem if you come across it again in the future.

    To run the program:

    Click Start
    Run
    Type: sfc /scannow

    Hope this helps.
