Explorer error LOGKKF.DLL

The above message appears whenever my PC is switched on.
I cannot get the message box to disappear and I also
cannot shut down the PC as normal. Can anyone help ?

Perhaps you didn't see my reply to your identical question yesterday. I have
copied it below.

Check your system for possible malware, virus, worm, trojan or parasite since
Win Me contains no such file and I have seen a number of recent reports where
users have reported problems with a file named LOG<random letters>.dll.

If you haven't already done so I would strongly recommend that you check your
system for possible viruses using your preferred anti virus application
equipped with an updated set of viral signatures. However you might first
want to check your PC using one of the online virus checks such as McAfee's
online checker (http://us.mcafee.com/root/mfs/default.asp) or Trend Micro's
Housecall (http://housecall.antivirus.com).

I would also urge you to check for possible commercial parasites, spyware and
other assorted adware. This might be a good time to download yourself a copy
of the free Ad-Aware 6.0 from Lavasoft
(http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and also SpyBot
(http://www.safer-networking.org/) and scan your system for and remove all
unwanted parasites, adware and spyware that might be hiding on your PC.

I suspect that you have been infected by malware of some description
You may have a virus/spyware hijack

download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure that A-V-disabling
viruses are not present on your PC
http://download.nai.com/products/mcafee-avert/stinger.exe

- update your virus scanner and run a full system scan of all files.

download AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com, install, update, and run it to
remove spyware, adware,
and other such nasties from your system.

See if that helps.
