    I have an adware program called advertismen on my PC and I want to remove it. So far all I've found to get rid of it are purchase request for software. When I go to ad and remove programs it says that I am missing a .dll file an windows cannot remove it. Please advise.
    Thanks

    Download Hijackthis ver. 1.99.1 from HERE and save it to your Desktop.
    Double click on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
    By default it will install to C:\Program Files\HijackThis.
    Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the "Select Addition Tasks" dialogue.
    Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
    Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
    At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch HijackThis.
    Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
    Copy and paste the log to this topic

    DO NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
