RUNDLL error message

When I turn my PC on I get this message on the screen.
RUNDLL
Error Loading C PROGRA ~ |MYWEBS ~ | \ bar \ |.bin\ M3PLUGIN.DLL
The specific module could not be found.
Click ok

Have I accidently deleted this, possibly with Adaware , is it important or shall I ignore and keep clicking ok to remove message from monitor?

Many Thanks
WA

MyWebSearch, which most regard as spyware - probably was detected and part-deleted by AdAware.

Google "M3PLUGIN.DLL" to find out how to remove it completely and stop the error message.

It will be called via Startup folder or via the Run key in the registry - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

Easiest to use MSConfig.
