Everytime i start up my laptop (i run XP) i get an error message that says:

RUNDLL

Error loading w002ab3a.dll

the specified module could not be found.

I have no idea what this means does anyone else??

Any help appreciated.
 
very likely that dll is spyware i would use a spyware scan asap and a virus scan just to make sure its clean
 
It sounds more like some orphanned entries are still left in the system registry from some program you removed. It doesn't take long for the system registry to start seeing some "invalid" this or that messages come up. I can suggest a pair of free cleaners that work on different versions of Windows quickly and quietly. The links here are for RegCleaner and Microsoft's RegClean.

I tried the regcleaner and for some reason i couldnt find this in the .dll file list, as far as spyware goes i did a sweep with seek and destroy and adaware and still its coming up. Any more ideas or am i just not using reg cleaner in the correct manner?

On a different note i currently have a huge problem with pop ups (all for credit cards and most annoyingly for disk cleanup tools) i run adaware, seek and destroy, avg and now avast and seem to locate tracking cookies which i then delete and yet the pop ups are still there. Any other good for anti-adware/spyware programs out there that are free??
 
Sounds like you have a major Infection going on there man. Have you ran CCleaner? Use that one as well it will look for and delete old files and it also has a registry cleaner option... Report back after that as well as if you can run a hijack this log...
