Hi,

I have had my laptop for about a year and a half and its still in pretty good shape....i mean it only has a 1G of ram and 120G hard drive....I have 3 pop ups when i start my computer up and it seems to be running super slow... i ahve AVG and Spybot but nothing seems to work...it says Error Loading C:\Users\CHRIST~AppData\local\Temp\opnkjhEV.dll
Error Loading C:\Users\CHRIST~AppData\local\Temp\sddadix.dll
Error Loading C:\Users\CHRIST~AppData\local\Temp\khfCvVol.dll


What does this mean and what can i do to fix it.....I also have a thing saying its updating machine version file....something from toshiba is that bad or good....seems to me it would be good but u dont know these days.....

Hello and welcome to Bargainshare! It sounds like you map have some form of Malware or Spyware. Try one of the free, legitimate online scanners listed in this thread. I often point friends or family at the Panda or Trend Micro ones.

AVG and Spybot are both (in my opinion) not the best choices anymore at finding everything. Personally I have switched from AVG to Avast! Home Edition.

If that doesn't fix the problem, check this thread for discussion on installing HijackThis, and if you post the results here, we can look at them.

Good luck!

I agree with BlueTDimly, but wanted to add my own comments.

The three files (opnkjhEV.dll, sddadix.dll and khfCvVol.dll) look like remnants of some spyware/adware/trojan that may have been installed on your PC. It seems like the files were deleted, but there's something in the registry or startup items that's trying to load them when Windows starts.

IMO, the best thing to do right now are some scans using programs other than Spybot & AVG. I find that none of these programs work 100%, so scanning with multiple programs is necessary. In addition to the page BlueT referred you to, also run a program called MalwareBytes. I've had much success with it.
