hey everyone, I need a little help, I've been getting 2 RunDLL pop-up things when I start up PC. I was told it has to do with my registry, Ok, I have no clue on how to remove these and was wondering if there is a 100% free anti-virus/ whatever else out there that if I run it it won't say you have X amount of issues with your registry but you need to then register and pay for the service. Please forgive me, I am not very computer savy so I may be a little off on my wording. I do have mcafee which I've been told sucks but I have it until 2011. any help? thanks, sorry so long on the explanation....

I've used Malwarebytes.org

Its free and run full scan to help get rid of any Trojans.

What's that other one AVG i believe, lemme check... yep AVG. just googled it , good luck Chris.

I know those are a pain, especially when you get one that says its Microsoft Anti spy or some stupid BS like that and it asks you to keep running scans... those are scary.

Jose, I will check that out but I did run 3 programs and at the end it said I still needed to pay for it and malwarebytes was one of them! I hate computers and love them at the same time when they run ok, thanks, I've been dealing with this for about a week now
