spywareblaster

everytime I try and get spywareblaster this

required .DLL file not found



is what pops up when I try and use spyblaster I keep reading about it. asked more than once about it this can't get a reply

can some one explain in laymans terms what i need to do to use this software? I'm kinda green when it comes to this stuff so talk slow, and hit me with a big stick........Don

 

It would help if you could include the dll name that pops up in the message. (ex. MSVBVM60.DLL)

However, assuming it is MSVBVM60.DLL, downloading and installing the following package from Microsoft should remove the problem.

http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60pro/Redist/sp5/WIN98Me/EN-US/vbrun60sp5.exe

If the file it mentions is NOT MSVBVM60.DLL, but is either MSCOMCTL.OCX or MSINET.ocx, the following instructions should help you out:

So try the first download I mentioned, and if it doesn't work, follow the instructions at the link above. Then you should have SpywareBlaster up and running.

Hi plwc! Do you have spybot! Spybot S&D is a cleaner. You might want to check out SpywareGuard as well.

Javacool, tried the download since MSVBVM60 was the message
still dosen't work . I now get the second one MSCOMCTL.OCX
the link you provided dosen't work either, but thank you for trying Don

 

plwc....

I was getting the same message on my Windows 95 machine.....no mscomctl.ocx to get spywareblaster running....so I went to my other machine running ME.....found that file in the window's system folder and put it on a floppy, and stuck it in the 95 system folder...problem solved. It's an activex file from microsoft..about 1.1 megabyte. If that link that javacool gave you doesn't work...try a Google search.

I hope this helps you.....

 

Instead of following the instructions on the second link, could you simply extract the MSCOMCTL.OCX file to your C:\Windows\System folder?

Then type the following in the Start>"Run..." box:

regsvr32 C:\Windows\System\MSCOMCTL.OCX

That should make sure the file is installed correctly.

If you still have problems, please post.
