Rundll error at start up
Hi,
I am getting a rundll error at start up. The error states that
error loading c:\windows\system32\tesavohi.dll the specified module could not be found.
I don't see any issues from this missing module yet.
I am using Webroot Internet Security Essentials as my security and have done some sweeps/scan and nothing has come up. I am using XP Pro Operating System and this is being run on a Vostro 1500.
I googled this module and nothing came up and did a search on this site also but nothing.
Does anyone know what can be causing this and what this module is for?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

That file has been associated with malware. Most likely Webroot did an incomplete removal.
Try running Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
Please download to your desktop Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from Here or Here
Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
Alternatively, you can update through MBAM's interface from a clean computer,
copy the definitions (rules.ref) located in
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes'
Anti-Malware from that system to a usb stick or CD and then copy it to the infected machine.
Click Remove Selected.
1. Just click the "Post A Message" button (upper right) in the Malware Removal forum HERE
to start your own thread requesting assistance for a follow-up check to be sure the malware is gone.
2. In the discussion window that opens, simply Right-Click and select Paste.
Extra Notes:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.
* If you are unable to download or install MBAM on your computer, see if you can use a friend's or family member's computer to download MBAM. Use this update link here to manually download the update. Once downloaded, rename the program installer "mbam-setup.exe" file to something else like "catchjunk.exe". Copy the installer file and the update file to your CD or flash drive. Transfer the file to the infected computer. Install the "catchjunk.exe" file, then run the update so that you will have the current definitions. After that, run a full system scan and select to have the program REMOVE whatever it finds.-- MBAM may make changes to your registry as part of its disinfection routine. If you're using other security programs that detect registry changes (like Spybot's Teatimer), they may interfere with the fix or alert you after scanning with MBAM. Please disable such programs until disinfection is complete or permit them to allow the changes.
**If you need to re-install MBAM but encounter issue in re-installing, try using the MBAM Cleanup Utility by downloading it from http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-clean.exe
