I keep having a window pop up saying:

ERROR LOADING C:\PROGRAM~1\COMMON~2\ADDRES~1\cnbabe.dll
The specified module could not be found
and then there is OK....

The file is a RUNDLL..i dont know what is RUNDLL..

I am seeking for help to remove this from my computer.It keeps on popping up every 2 minutes and its really getting into my nerves.

Thanks in advance...

Do you have updated antivirus definitions? Had you recently downloaded something? Did you visit a shady website?

You could try Housecall. It's an online virus scanner. It's helped me out a few times.

I'll pretend I didn't read that.

Anyway. Start, run:

msconfig

Go to the startup tab. Look down the "Command" column.

Do you see any mention of the path you saw in the error message? What about rundll or rundll32?

The best free On -demand virus scanner right now is BitDefender. Download a copy and scan your computer with it, then come back and tell us if you found anything.

And also as cpugeniusmv already said use msconig and see if you can find it.

The cnbabe.dll is used by commonname's programs. Commonname software is typically installed with another product such as iMesh or Kazaa
cnbabe.dll is considered to be a security risk, not only because spyware removal programs flag Babe IE as spyware, but also because a number of users have complained about its performance.
Babe IE is likely spyware and as such, presents a serious vulnerability which should be fixed immediately! Delaying the removal of cnbabe.dll may cause serious harm to your system and will likely cause a number of problems, such as slow performance, loss of data or leaking private information.
