Error Message

Everytime I bootup, I recieve two error messages. The first message reads: "Cannot find the file 'fntldr.exe { or one of its components} Make sure the path and file name are correct and that all libraries are available. "

The second error message reads: "Could not load or run'fntldr.exe' specified in the win.ini file. Make sure the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the win.ini file."

I looked for these entries in Explore, Registry, and in msconfig, but couldn't find any reference to them. Where can I find them, and how will I recognize them, and what can I do to correct this.

Help, please....I really am a Computer-Illiterate.

Thanks so much....

 

'fntldr.exe is part of a line added to win ini by a spyware/redirector is not good and you should download and update and run a program called ad-aware or spybot serarch and destroy from any legit download site like snapfiles.com or cnet download.com. Either one should fix this problem.
