Alrite, so my computer had a virus and I downloaded AVG anti-virus and got rid of it.
But since the everytime I start up my computer 3 warning that say:
error loading c:\windows\system\wakosoli.dll
error loading c:\windows\system\pekiboba.dll
error loading c:\windows\system\valalafo.dll
so I searched all of these 3 file names and they all show that they are viruses that I shouldn't have, so how can I make my computer stop looking for them?
Other than that my computer is fine, I just want to get rid of these annoying boxes on start up. |

| Hmm, try typing msconfig in Run and look under the startup tab if you find those there. Uncheck them if they are there. Probably won't be the solution though. |

AVG has not completely removed them is what the problem is. Download Hijack This, and run it. You will need to run it in safe mode as well, and whatever it finds and can't remove, try to remove it yourself if needed by going directly to the folder/location. |

| Restart windows in safe mode and run AV full scan again. Also install like superantispyware or malwarebytes anti-malware on it for xxxtra protection |

Start > Run > msconfig
Goto startup tab and remove the ones you want.
If you can't remove C:\\.dll because it's being used, I found this neat little trick:
| quote: |
It is a winlogon malware piece; it installs an entry into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify while it is running. If you delete one of those that points to the random-named dll's, it will create another one.
If you don't have access to those tools there is another way to do it with just command line tools
1) Find the dll's with funky random names in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify
2) Open a command line and run:
2a) cacls C:\path-to-randomsdf902.dll /D Everyone
2b) attrib -R -A -S -H C:\path-to-randomsdf902.dll
* These programs will deny all access for this dll to run or do anything
3) Reboot and make sure that no more entries were put in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify
All spyware stuff should be removed in Safe Mode (keep pressing F8 on reboot - choose safe mode with no networking); this helps out a lot especially if the machine is really bad and bogged down
