Whenever I boot up my PC, I receive the following
message: "SPORDER.DLL FILE NOT FOUND". I think this is due
to ADWARE programs that sneaked into my PC. I have since
removed all ADWARE and have a program to check for new
ones.
Here are the questions:
1)How do I get rid of the message?
2)Is there some adware job kicking off at boot time?
3) Do I need to edit the local registry and remove a
command that invokes this?

Thanks in advance.

It is not necessarily Adaware or spyware. Sygate Personal Firewall, for
example, uses a file by that name, and if you have used AdAware to remove
spyware, and have Sygate, then AdAware will have deleted the file and left
Sygate with problems, causing the error message.
