Did you look in the Startup Group as I suggested? I can't tell where in
the Registry you are from what you've reported. When you see that in the
R-pane of RegEdit, select "Export Registry File" from the Registry menu.
Then, R-Clk the file it creates, select Edit, & post it if not very
large.
Here this might really be best...

| Thanks for the previous help...for some reason I couldn't
| post a reply to an anwer?!!!!
|
| Anyways, checked the scan Reg and found the two following
| with the offending DLL
|
| (ab) (Default) "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM|PBPNDI.DLL
| (ab) Threading Model APartment
|
| I can't delete the first one, and the second one reappears
| on reboot?
|
| ANy ideas anyone how to proceed?
|
| Thanks in advance.
|
| ----------------------------------------------------------
| have no such "PBPNDI.DLL", nor is it in my Win98SE .cabs.
| http://groups.google.com/groups?q=PBPNDI.DLL&ie=UTF-
| 8&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search
| No one has heard of it at Google Groups, ever! Have you
| spelt it
| correctly?
|
| A .DLL may be started in the Startup Group by
| RunDLL32.exe. Also, there
| may be other ways it gets started. Therefore, selectively
| prevent the
| non-MS items in "START, Run, MSConfig, Startup tab", to
| see which is
| starting it.
|
| (1) If your virus checker has quarantined an item, a call
| to something
| that uses PBPNDI.DLL may yet be in the Startup Group. It
| is trying to
| activate but cannot. So, "START, Run, MSConfig, Startup
| tab", & uncheck
| it. Next, go to your virus scanner's site, to see whether
| there are
| other finishing touches to apply.
|
| (2) If you've uninstalled something lately, much the same
| applies.
| Reinstall it, & uninstall it again properly in "Control
| Panel,
| Add/Remove Programs". That way, if anything else was left
| behind, it too
| will hopefully go.
|
| (3) Well, consider...
|
| Check the Registry for a mention of it, Export, & Delete
| the line.
| However, if the line is in an MRU (Most Recently Used)
| list, just let it
| be...
|
| (a) "START, Run, RegEdit".
| (b) Select "Find" in the Edit menu. Search
| for "PBPNDI.DLL", no quotes.
| (It may take a while.)
|
| (c) "Registry menu, Export Registry file".
|
| This will create a ".reg" file of the entire Key
| that is open...
| all the items in the right pane & any sub-keys in the left
| pane
| (supposing there was a plus sign on the one highlighted).
| Give it a name
| & location of your choosing, even to the Desktop or My
| Documents. Then,
| if something goes wrong with the following, you will be
| able to simply
| click that file, to Merge it's contents back into the
| Registry.
|
| (d) R-Clk the item(s) in the right or left pane that
| specifically
| mentions "PBPNDI.DLL", and select Delete.
| Anything in an MRU list may be left alone.
| You know what? Perhaps just do the Export's & post
| them.
| (e) Continue the search, at step (b).
|
|
| By default, when a ".reg" is clicked, it will Merge into
| the Registry.
| To alter the default behavior: "START, Settings, Folder
| Options, File
| Types tab". Scroll to & click "Registration Entries",
| click the "Edit"
| button, select "edit" in the window & click the "Set
| Default" button.
| Now, when you click a ".reg" file, it will open in Notepad
| for
| examination. To merge it into the Registry, R-Clk it &
| select "Merge".
