spyware

Dear: All...

Windows Defender got rid of a spyware that I picked up some how!?? , but
now, I am still having the following issue with my system... At start up
after I log in.. The following error message appears

Title of the windows is "Run DLL"
Error message : the specified module can not be found
"C:windows/system32/KhfDuTkc.dll"

I ran windows defender, and it did not pickup anything.. I also have
Kaspersky and it also did not find anything..

But this is one of the two files that windows defender original found as
spyware..

Where can I look and fix as to what is trying to load this DLL?

Start - Regedit

Search for KhfDuTkc and remove the entries... if in doubt COPY and
PASTED the entries in here for Advice before deletion.

Make a Restore Point before any editing.

And they won't, because the file is gone. What's left is the reference to
it.

Go to Start, run, type msconfig, press Enter. On the Startup tab, look for
anything that includes that text. Note the location, and you can go there
and remove it.

Use RegEdit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run

Look there - search the registry for it as I said.
