I have tried to locate the hidden dll for removing the about:blank spyware but the registrey key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\\AppInit_DLLs
does not exist on my win2000 pc. there is a AppInit_DLLs key that points to the above address minus the AppInit_DLLs key under Currentversion\InFileMapping\win.ini : SYS:Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
