Default Compaq Printer missing a file?

I am having trouble Right-clicking on my computer icon--
when I "Right Click", I get "Rundll32 has caused an error
in unknown, Rundll32 will now close" (exact message). I
checked the files associated with this printer (Compaq
IJ600) and noticed CQ60DEL file looks to have a RED "X"--
could this be the "culprit"--if so, how do i "replace"
this file (CQ60DEL)? If not, what would cause
the "Rundll32" error message?
Any ideas would be most welcome.

I can't help resolve your problem. Only wanted to let you know that I
use an IJ600 and have no problems. My CQ60DEL.EXE has a RED X. When I
look at the file's properties, it appears to be the program you would
use to uninstall the IJ600's printer drivers. If it is, then I doubt it
is the culprit (though I could be wrong!) Hope someone else comes along
who can actually help you resolve your problem.

Thanks, Nevans--I later nopticed that when I clicked on
Compaq Printer icon on desktop--it is INDEED an uninstall
program for the Compaq printer-so it is NOT
the "culprit". Let me just add when I RIGHT-Click on the
compaq Printer icon & click "Properties" or "Sharing", I
get the "Rundll32" error message.

You may have a virus/spyware hijack

download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure that A-V-disabling
viruses are not present on your PC
http://download.nai.com/products/mca...rt/stinger.exe

- update your virus scanner and run a full system scan of all files.

Reboot to Safe Mode and run CWShredder - to remove variants of the
CoolWebSearch hijacker.
http://www.merijn.org/cwschronicles.html

Use CWShredder, the removal tool:
http://www.merijn.org/files/cwshredder.zip
http://www.merijn.org/files/CWShredder.exe
http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads...CWShredder.exe
http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip

download AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com, install, update, and run it to
remove spyware, adware,
and other such nasties from your system.
