My guess is that you ran a spyware cleaner that discovered the nasty,
deleted the DLL, but failed to get rid of the startup command.

First, go to StartRun, type in MSCONFIG, then click OK. Does it show as
configured for Normal Startup or Selective Startup? If the latter, go
through every tab and write down the items that are unchecked. Keep that
list safe and post a copy here, along with the following:

Go to StartRun, type in MSINFO32, then click OK. Expand the Software
Environment, click on Startup Programs, then click anywhere in the
right-hand-pane. Now press Ctrl-A, then Ctrl-C. Now open a Reply to this
message and use Ctrl-V to Paste in the info.
