I need some help. Everytime I boot up my computer or click on any icon a message pops up that says this:

"The application or DLL C:\WINDOWS\system32\iniwin32.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

I've done all of the previous steps you require and it has not gone away I would appreciate it if you could help me. My reference log looks like this:

Hi Sarahleigh,

Did you go through the Malware Removal Procedures.

http://wiki.castlecops.com/Malware_Removal_and_Prevention:_Overview

iniwin32.dll comes up as malware.
here is one link about it.
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/spyware.e2give.html

You could register here at CastleCops for free and post your HJT in the appropriate
forum thread for an expert to look at.
But first you will need to go through the Malware Removal Procedures
and that will probably get rid of the problem.

Good luck.
Bad out.
