Error loading sys32.dll

[KhoiFather]

Everytime I load up my computer, this box pops up and says

Error loading C:\Documents and Settings\Buk\Application Data\Microsoft\windows\sys32.dll

The specified module could not be found.

How do I fix this? Is it a virus? Thanks for the help!

Perform a repair install on windows.

from googleing its comming back virus/spyware so i would do a virus scan / antispyware scan

I have ESET32 anti virus and it doesn't detect anything. I also ran Trojan Remover and that didn't detect anything either.

I too googled "sys32.dll" and it sure looks like a worm. However, your system is missing the file, so antivirus products won't find it. You need to find what is trying to load it. Perhaps an antivirus product removed the file "sys32.dll", but whatever wants to load it is still there.

I just searched my Windows XP Home SP2 drive (including hidden and system files) and did not find any file called "sys32.dll".

to remove it from startup you can use msconfig to remove the checkmark beside that or you can uses autoruns or hijackthis to remove it permanently from the registry
