Does anyone know if rdsuqikt.dll is a necessary file? its in the system32 folder... running XP Pro..I had the help of a IT pro delete a few files after I ran Hijackthis software .This made my computer run a lot better but she suggested to post my logfile or ask about this file since she is not sure we should delete
I was getting all kinds of interesting websites popup, losing icons, system was locking and also running very slow. Norton 360 has cleaned up Vundo numerous times before I was told to delete all backups and shut down System Restore I still am getting a few websites start and was wondering if anyone can tell me about this...First time on this site so thanks in advance for the help!! This has been a nasty nasty problem

Hello Dave and welcome. Although I think it's either malware or dead let's get another opinion. Please submit the file to the link provided below and post their reply in your next reply,Thanks.

Note: 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. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

those random named files tend to come and go as you try to remove them and the names don't stay the same
to see hidden files and folders you have to
Show Hidden Folders/Files- Open My Computer.
- Go to Tools > Folder Options.
- Select the View tab.
- Scroll down to Hidden files and folders.
- Select Show hidden files and folders.
- Uncheck (untick) Hide extensions of known file types.
- Uncheck (untick) Hide protected operating system files (Recommended).
- Click Yes when prompted.
- Click OK.
- Close My Computer.
remember any changes you make so you can undo them if needed
