Error Messages in Startup and Shutdown

Hey guys! Any help with the following problems would be
greatly appreciated. Please send any info to



Thank you!

Whenever I startup my computer, I get this
message...CANNOT IMPORT sysdllwm.reg ERROR OPENNING FILE.
THERE MAY BE A DISK OR FILE SYSTEM ERROR

and when I shutdown, I get this.. ABNORMAL PROGRAM
INTERRUPTION...C:WINDOWS/WINLOGIN.EXE

Any ideas?

Parasite and Virus alert

SYSDLLWM.REG
This file was almost certainly used by a website you visited to put its
payload into the registry after which it probably deleted the file hence it
being missing when you boot your PC. At a guess it is a hijacker of some
sort.

You can remove the message you are seeing by using MSConfig (Start, Run, enter
MSConfig in the box and click OK), open the startup tab and uncheck any line
that includes a reference to sysdllwm.reg. Now reboot.

When did you last check your system for commercial parasites and other
malware?

May I strongly recommend that you check your system for unwanted commercial
malware, parasites and the like using the free AdAware
(http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and SpyBot Search & Destroy
(http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/). Other useful tools include
BHOCaptor (http://www.xcaptor.org) that checks for unwanted Browser Help
Objects and SpywareBlaster
(http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareblaster.html) which can help prevent
some parasites getting a grip on your PC.

However your problem could be due a variant of the odious CoolWebSearch
hijacker and the best way of removing this is to use merijn's CWShredder which
can be downloaded from either:
http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip
or
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

For more details of the CoolWebSearch hijacker see

WINLOGIN.EXE
This is almost certainly a virus or more likely a trojan such as W32.Randex.E
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.randex.e.html

When did you last check your system for such nasties with your preferred
anti-virus application equipped with a current updated set of viral reference
signatures?
