can anyone who has windows xp search for a file for me please

[2shoes]

I am missing a file and just need to know where it should be(if I had it)
c:\windows\cbyxuu.dll
pretty please

hmmm I don't have it either it seems
just done a search for it

ooh, it's malware... it's good that we don't have it! I just googled

if it is bad why does the pc tell me it can't load it every time it starts up?

I don't know.. do you run scans and things regularly?

this is what I found about that dll

this is a very good spyware scanner

download, install, update and run

i have macfee(sp) and scan once a week. I also have windows defender but it won;t work. will try the spybot. which one should I download?

try that one

I found macafee didn't always find everything which is how i got into the habit of using spybot too

god i'm an arse, sorry

here

thanks will give it a whirl and report back

any good?

it is scanning so not sure yet

it's a fab program, finds crap that other's don't

wow youshould have seen the list
I think the little box has gone now(fingers crossed)
did you down load version tracker as well. and do I need to back up my registry?

IT WORKED IT HAS GONE

I would guess that your program found & removed the .dll file, but the malware would have put something else on that looks for & runs the .dll (and complains if it doesn't find it) and your program didn't get rid of that one, - now Spybot has fixed it.

well at least I can stop looking for something that does not exust.
any ideas on the registry thingy?

I don't think you do unless you're going to make changes to it which hopefully you aren't, lol

thanks will leave it then
thanks for your help

and i have some how fixed defender
