|

I seem to be have a good deal of trouble related to the file in my Windows(XP)/System32 directory named msg121.dll. Each time I try to delete this file I get a dialog saying it is in use by another program. How can I delete this file?
THX in advance,
ImChewy |

Please follow these directions:
From Computer Cops get the Direct-Download of HijackThis. It's zipped.
Unzip the download (using a piece of software like Winzip). Create a folder in My Documents and unzip HijackThis into the new folder and run it from there.
Doubleclick on HijackThis.exe from the unzipped archive and press the "Scan" button.
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press this button, and save the log to the same folder as HijackThis.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Most of what HijackThis lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet.
Next, go to the Spyware-HijackThis Forum and press "New Topic".
Be specific in explaining your issue. Please tell us what you are experiencing on your computer. For example, has it slowed down, getting weird pop-ups, homepage has been changed, etc? Then copy and paste the contents of your entire HijackThis log into your new topic thread.
Open the Log with Wordpad (for example), Press Ctrl + A to highlight all, then Press Ctrl + C to copy it. To put it in your post, position the cursor on the page and press Ctrl + V.
Someone here will be happy to help you analyze the results..
Best regards and Welcome to Computer Cops!
