HAVE SEARCHED MS CAN NOT FIND
MESSAGE COMES UP ON BOOTING THAT THIS FILE CAN NOT BE FOUND
ONLY STARTED AFTER RUNNING ADAWARE AND SPY BOT

IS THIS THE REMAINS OF SOMETHING NASTY OR A MISSING MS FILE

MSA64CHK.DLL is part of the Mostrar Dialler that uses a premium rate phone
number to connect you to porn sites. I suspect that was has happened is
that either AdAware or SpyBot removed this file but did not remove the
entry used to launch this dialler from the start-up axis. Using MSConfig
(Start | Run, enter MSConfig in the box and click OK), open the Startup
tab and look for and uncheck any entry that refers to either MSA64CHK.DLL,
123Messenger or to Mostrar Dialler.
Now reboot and you should not see this message,

For more details of MSA64CHK.DLL which is also known as Mostrar Dialler

Please do not post in capitals. They are hard to read and you may be
ignored.

That file is nothing to do with MS as it was supplied by the Mostrar
Dialer parasite.
Uncheck the entry in Msconfig.
(Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab)
