Receive message " A required . DLL file MSVBVM60.dll, was not found."
when I try to run CWShredder or Hijack This. Have run adaware and spybot ok.
I read it's probably spyware, but can't find a fix. Please advise. Thanks.

You must install the Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 run-time on your system
This is a direct link from Microsoft
http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb6.../vbrun60sp5.exe (http://\"http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60pro/Redist/sp5/WIN98Me/EN-US/vbrun60sp5.exe\")
Save to desktop, double click on it to install
Restart your computer and then try posting a log again

With ONLY CWShredder open let it FIX all problems
Restart your computer
Spybot is a great spyware remover
I also recommend this one
Download and Install the free version of Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.05 (http://\"http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10045910.html?part=69274&subj=dlpage&tag=button\")
Ensure you have this version or later
After installation-CHECK FOR UPDATES
Do a Full system scan----Remove All Critical objects
RESTART your computer to finish the cleaning process
Post back with a fresh hijackthis log and let me know how things are going
