How can I fix an system32\rundll32.exe error message that appears whenever I click on an icon on my desktop.
I can't open internet explore or firefox without being invited to choose from a list of programs to run the .exe file from. When I click on internet explore I wonder if I want to run this file or save it, option whatever I choose it does not work.
In addition, I'm not able to click and open all the shortcut icons on my desktop. I get the c:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe application not found error.
Hello
- Could you give us the exact error message?
This problem occurs because of a missing or corrupted Rundll32.exe file. This problem can also be caused by a virus.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
1 put the CD ROM Windows XP disc in the CD-ROM drive.
2. click on start and then click Run.
3. type expand X: \i386\rundll32.ex_ c:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe in the Open box, where X is the letter of your CD drive.
4 restart the computer.
For more information, please see the KB article.
I hope this helps.

How can I fix the NTVDM. EXE Error trying to open an old DOS program?
NTVDM. EXE has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. That is the message in the box that appears whenever I try to run my program.
Hello
1. what MS-DOS version do you use to run the program?
2. it worked earlier?
3 did you last modified the software on the computer?
NTVDM. EXE Windows process to run legacy doc (16 BITS) process on machines of 32-BIT or 64-BIT now. NTVDM has been around for a long time, however the architecture of the operating system has changed, especially with Windows 7.
Maybe it's that your app is trying to do something that Windows 7 simply does no more - with some changes things has changed and some applications no longer work.
There is a "Windows XP Mode" for Windows 7 that you can download for free from Microsoft-
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx - this would allow you to run your application in what is essentially a virtual machine running Windows XP figure and thus behave as such.
I would recommend that you take this approach and check.
Hope this helps and keep us informed if you need help.

Rundll32 errors can be caused by malware.
If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
cause.No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
the regular windows when you can.TDSSKiller.exe. - Download the desktop - so go ahead and right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

The little ' [Javascript Application] and balance.balance is not defined ' pop-up window is followed by a pop up that shows a sign of prudence and the number 3. They repeatedly pop up when I click on the button OK or X, I have to click 10 times until they disappear. Then, Firefox seems to work normally until I exit and try to come back later to Firefox.
I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled without effect. I also ran a convenience store that seemed to refer to distance to this problem with no effect.
This does not happen when I load Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. Except for this issue, I prefer Firefox over one or the other.Hello, you can try to reproduce this behavior when you start firefox in safe mode, once? If not, probably an addon intrudes here...

How can I get rid of an Outlook Express message that appears at startup?
The message is placed:
To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compress...
I don't even use Outlook Express.
If you are comfortable in the Windows registry, you can navigate to the following address:
\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\ {Long ID Number}
Name: "Compact Check Count".
Value = 0
Otherwise, I'm out of ideas.

After you sort a few UAC problems on the computer of a friend (see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-security/a-domain-user-in-the-local-administrators-group/745fc28d-7573-4414-aa4e-657054fc62dd) we hit another problem.
After modification of the environment variables, it seems that windows loses some environment variables until a disconnection/connection is made. If you open a back command prompt and type the value, there are far fewer variables and things like %windir%\System32 disappeared. If you try to open the variable dialog environment again, you get a 'cannot find windir%\system32\rundll32.exe %. The same thing happens if you restart in safe mode. After a closed session/login, added environment variable are there, so they are saved, it just seems like it won't let windows none of them until a new logon.
One oddity is that the variable env pathext has different things in after things go wrong. He started as a
PATHEXT = .COM; EXE;. BEATS;. CMD;. VBS;. VBE;. JS;. JSE;. WSF;. WSH;. MSC. ; PY
and after adding a new use env variable and opening a new prompt back, together said
PATHEXT = .COM; EXE;. BEATS;. CMD;. VBS;. JS;. WS;. MSC
Is this a sign of a register messed up, that could have caused the original problem, or something else? Any ideas on how to diagnose this problem? Any help much appreciated. I have left this in the Security section, as it seems that it could be linked to the original problem, but am happy to move.
Any help much appreciated.
I don't know what caused your problem, but your original path certainly seemed excessively long. There is a lot of overlap in it you need to remove - see below. In addition, having records of remote machines at the beginning of your path will cause the machine to slow down a lot. You should remove them.

I have Windows XP Service Pack 3. Downloaded FixIt, but did not fix. Last successful update was 12/14/11. How can I fix this error code? Thanks a bunch for all help!
If Windows Update error 80072ee2 during updates, you may need to add the addresses of websites which Windows Update downloads updates to the exceptions to your firewall or 'green list '.
To add the Windows Update Web sites to a firewall exceptions list
Windows Firewall ships with this version of Windows and should already include these sites in the exceptions list. If you are using another firewall, see Help for the software publisher to see how to add these websites to your firewall exceptions list:

How can I fix exported from the flattened PDF fonts that are unreadable? [iOS]
When I export a PDF file that is flattened at the e-mail, the text in the fields of the form becomes vertically squashed and unreadable. Send the original works fine. How can I fix?
It ends up looking like this:
Instead:
Any ideas? This document can be used on other iPads without a problem.
Bryce
Hi SBryceW,
We are currently testing the fix for the problem of flattening. If all goes well, we should be able to include the fix in the next version of Acrobat Reader for iOS. However, I'm not able to speculate on the exact date of the next version.
Another solution: If you have the desktop version of Acrobat Pro (no player) on a Windows or Mac computer, you can use it to flatten the form fields.
How to flatten the PDF using Acrobat X or XI form fields
When the new version of Acrobat Reader for iOS (containing the fix) is available in the App Store, I'll let you know by responding to this thread again.
Thank you!

A web search doesn't get any hits on bxrjfwe.dll, it is almost
certainly a name randomly generated by a malicious software program. You did
recently remove a malware? If so it's maybe just a small remnant
of which has been deleted.Do not download a registry cleaner even though it's free.
Registry cleaning programs are all snake oil. Cleaning of the
registration is not necessary and is dangerous. Let alone register and
do not use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and
What software record cleaning suppliers are trying to convince you,
have unused registry entries is not really make you hurt.
The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake
delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit
It can have.
Read http://www.edbott.com/weblog/archives/000643.htmland http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099
Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns the
use of registry cleaners never said that they always cause
problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from
the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
cleaner and never had a problem with it.The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
the risk of a significant problem. And since there is no
benefits of using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad
good deal.Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP
