It means it took something out of the system 32 folder, which isnt good, but it could have been adware, but you will keep getting those errors.

God forbid you have to hit spacebar 2 more times. Is it really gonna kill you to do that?

Spybot search and destroy deletes stuff from your registry and /windows folder. Why newbs shouldn't use it. BTW moved to tech.

How about you google both of those file names, download the files, put them back into the win32 folder. Simple as that.

Ah, yes, the after-effects of spyware.....

Since Cort didn't say exactly what he wanted, basically go to msconfig, Startup and uncheck the offending processes.

You can always demolish it from your registry too, but I forgot where.

Start > Run > regedit > My Computer > Menu Edit > Find > set for Keys, Values and Data > write the name of any spyware that cames to your mind (such as Gator) > Ok > Usually delete what appears > press F3 to continue the search > etc.

Usually those spyware programs write something random so that programs like spybot won't find them, and they can reinstall.

Problem is, Cort, half of them are in the System32 folder or something and not many people would mess with that.....

Just a quick note added on to what Cort said: find the program, right-click, go to Properties and the version tab to see what the program is, or Google the program name to see if it is spyware before unchecking it.

Programs like 'fash.exe' and 'Jammer2nd.exe' are obvious spyware, so you can safely disable them.
