This is an incompatibility with that version of the MS-Visual C++ run-time
DLL and the Yahoo toolbar.  Uninstall the Yahoo toolbar and it will likely
work.

Subject: [Ham-Computers] Need info possible spyware

My mom has a older Compaq computer, Compaq Presario 5000 running Windows
Millenium and has been having problems not being able to log onto her Yahoo
mail.

I wrote down what she's getting on the screen and this is what it says.
As a side note she only gets this when trying to access her Yahoo mail, no
other time does she see the following.

msvcrt.dll pops up in 1 window and when she hits the X, then she gets this,
kernel32.dll

Is this spyware or is her version of Windows corrupt?

I remember seeing kernel32 somewhere long time ago, but can't remember what
it was about.

Suggestions...Comments...
