Rundll32.exe error in Windows 98

I RECENTLY DISCOVERED THAT,(AS A RESULT OF A NOVICE ERROR) I ACCIDENTI-LY
DELETED MY (RUNDLL/RUNDLL32.EXE) FILES.
IS THERE A SIMPLE SOLUTION AVAILABLE TO RE-ESTABLISH THESE FILES?

Yes.
First, you turn off the hard-to-read capitals or you may get ignored.
Second, you should post to a Win98 group as this is not a Windows
Update question.

Lecture over....

Extract new copies of those files from your Win98 CD.
Start-Run-SFC and extract one file.

For more detail, though it should not be needed.

On boot up I get [Error loading C:WINDOWS\system32\zzwbkdsmsat.dll
The specified module could not be found.]

Can't install .exe files [ C:\Documents and Settings\Shoe
Family\Desktop\JigsawBeachHoliday Install.exe is not a valid Win32
application.

Please help me find the answer to correct this problem.

This is the WRONG place to post this Off Topic subject matter.

It should have been posted in a news group relevant to your OS.

For example if you use WinXP then microsoft.public.windowsxp.general would be apropos.

Getting back to your question...

Chances are zzwbkdsmsat.dll was malware and you anti malware utility removed the DLL but
failed to remove the startup line that had called the DLL.

Run; MSCONFIG and find the startup tab.
Search for zzwbkdsmsat.dll and remove the line that called it.

Thank you Dave for your response. I have gone to msconfig and unchecked the
start up line for the malware and when I boot up I get another window that
says I am starting up in selective mode. I wasn't sure what to do at that
point so I left it alone. I will try to find the newsgroup. Thank you for
your time.
