When I login to windows xp, I get a box pop up that says The applicator or DLL C:\WINDOWS\AppPatch\AcAdproc.dll is not a valid windows image. Then, I get another box that pops up and says CTF Loader has encountered a problem and needs to close. APPNAME:ctfmon.exe, ModName:msctf.dll. How can I fix this?

Hello I do not believe this is a malware issue and I don't know where they moved this from...
I do belive running SFC will fix it though.

Please run System File Checker sfc /scannow... For more information on this tool see How To Use Sfc.exe To Repair System Files

NOTE for Vista users..The command needs to be run from an elevated Command Prompt.
Click Start, type cmd into the Start/Search box,
right-click cmd.exe in the list above and select 'Run as Administrator'

You will need your operating system CD handy.

Open Windows Task Manager....by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ESC

Then click File.. then New Task(Run)

In the box that opens type sfc /scannow ......There is a space between c and /

Click OK
Let it run and insert the XP CD when asked.

How do I get help? Who is helping me?
