Default Rundll32 has caused an error in

I get this error message after booting up and entering my
home network password. Any ideas what could be causing
it? I have repeatedly run ad-aware 6.0 in safe mode,
spybot s&d, trend micro internet security pc-cillin, and
have eliminated all the malware I can. Something from VX2
called roclst5.dll in windows/system seems to be
impossible to remove and adware keeps returning.

You need to get rid of roclst5.dll as VX2 is something you really don't want
to have running on your PC.

Did you update both AdAware and SpyBot before using these tools?

Have you tried using the removal instructions for VX2 found at
http://www.cexx.org/vx2.htm and also
http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/Transponder.html?

Finally if you still continue to experience problems download a copy of
HijackThis from (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html). Create a
folder called HJT on C: (not on your desktop nor in your temp folder) and copy
the file you downloaded to that folder. Close as many applications as you can
including all instances of Internet Explorer. Enable Explorer to see all files
and folders (Tools | Folder Options | View and check "Show hidden files and
folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files") and then run
hijackthis.exe and post back the log to either the HijackThis Forum at
http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ or alternatively
http://forum.aumha.org/viewforum.php?f=30 and hopefully this will enable
someone to identify the cause of your problem.
