This error started occurring a long time ago, when I used msconfig to disable some junk on my startup that I couldn't remove before. I guess I was being too careless and took off something important. Now when windows starts up, I get this error shown below. I tried resetting to defaults, I even tried System Restore, and I still get that damn "Bridge.dll module not found" error. I'm so tired of getting this error every time windows starts up that I am now asking for help.

Add to C:\windows\downloaded program files and restart. Maybe try putting a copy in c:\windows\system too, if the error continues to occur -- since those .dll files are really for the system directory (but perhaps in this case there are exceptions).

On an off-topic note, I thought this thread would be some sort of joke. I mean, bridge.dll?? I'm too lazy to even google for what it does, even though I just googled a download location for it.

The ZIP file doesn't contain bridge.dll... It only contains instructions. Also, for some reason Windows doesn't allow me to place any files in the Downloaded Program Files folder.

Actually, I would read that instruction file. It is saying bridge.dll is part of a 2-file adware scam, and it also contains instructions on how to remove the whole thing.

I read the instructions and none of those registries exist in my registry. There are no traces of that ad-ware.

What have you got on startup / in your startup folder on the start menu?

This is what's in my startup:

What's not shown are startup programs I know, since they all wouldn't fit in one screen.

Out of those the only bad one is Brdige which is Flingstone.com browser hijacker.

To remove it properly: http://sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/adware.winfavorites.html

If you want to tidy up your startup a good place is http://www.lafn.org/webconnect/mentor/startup/PENINDEX.HTM where you can look up all the programs and see what they are, and if you need them.

by_ruddles: I've already taken those instructions before, I even tried again now and those key registries aren't there.

Beanyhead: Even though I've tried doing that many times, it actually worked this time... Thanks.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

Thanks guys.
