Anyone Here Know What This Windows File "aykbboz.dll" Is?
I keep getting this error message saying that this file is not a valid image. I tried googling it and I got nothing.

1. Are you sure you spelled that right?
There's nothing in the M$ Knowledge base about that file.

It might be related to a virus. Do you practice safe computing?

2. Yes, It's Spelled Correctly.
The full pathname is:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\aykbboz.dll


I get an error message whenever I launch IE from the quick launch bar.

3. Sounds like IE picked up a nasty.
Solution: Firefox.

5. No, had the same problem with Firefox awhile back.
Ended up being malware.

Freeware called malwarebytes cleared it up pretty easily.

I'm not affiliated in any way, except as a satisfied user.

4. Are you having browser issues?
If so, could be malware.

6. Yes, It Pops Up When I Launch IE
It may be malware. I ran Malwarebytes, but not as a full scan. I'm doing so now.
