    Hi, I have seen this problem a few times and is usually casued by spyware on the system.

    First thing I'd do would scan your system with some spyware programs

    UPDATE BEFORE RUNNING
    ---------------------
    Adaware
    Spybot S&D
    Ccleaner
    AVG or Anti-Vir

    These should find a nasty between them. If not, or if you have already tried these, can you run system restore?

    Sometimes rundll32 gets infected and these programs clean it, but they also trash that file which is needed for a lot of windows stuff.

    System restore may give you a good version back.

    Hope it helps.

    It's not in my answer, it's in my signature field.

    I'm thinking of removing it though, it's about 160k, which could slow the page down for dial-up users.
