AOL IM, ePrompter, RUNDLL

As in the above title, I am having a few problems. So as to not make 3 different posts, I hope this way is OK.

First, When I attempt to log in to the Guest account, I get the following error message..
RUNDLL
Error loading C:\Windows\System 32\yabax.dll
The specified module could not be found

OK
This only appears while logging into Guest Account.

Second, I have recently uninstalled AOL IM through add\remove in control panel and the following error message appears when logging into either of 3 accounts on computer,

An Installation Error has been detected. Please reinstall AIM. If problem persists, try installing AIM into an empty folder.

OK
I have reinstalled,and uninstalled, but same results..

Third, I have uninstalled ePrompter. I get this message when logging in..

EPrompter has encountered a problem and needs to close. (send or not send report to MS)

Is there a fix for these situations?
Thanks in advance.

WIN XP Home
IE 6

First, It's not OK to post this in few different thread.

AOL IM is "The Worst" application I came across

Here is what's happening....even after un-installing IM there must be something in your computer calling for the DLL [yabax.dll]....what you need to do is to remove anything that runs on startup [not Anti virus] , go through registry as well as "msconfig" an see what is calling DLL file in question.

Cheers

For what it's worth.. I downloaded, scanned and ordered the registered version of REGCURE. During the scan, it reported it found 1903 errors. Of these, 2 were Uninstall errors, it cleaned 4,..172 were shared dll errors, it cleaned 344. I assumed these were cause of the error messages as mentioned in my above post. WRONG.. I still get the error messages now when I log in. Guess I may as well return for a refund of purchase price.

If I can figure it out, I will try your tips snowmonkey, Thanks

Snowmonkey, In the first line of my post, I was referring to not making 3 different subjects in..software and tips. Not making a "few different post" in this thread. What are the steps in registry and msconfig to see what is calling for .DLL file?

I've been away for a while.

I did a search for all files with the name of AOL. It came up with about 20 files. I highlighted and deleted them all. Now I no longer get the above error message. ePrompter was uninstalled long ago but it still shows up in msconfig start-up. I unchecked it and now dont get that error message either. Not sure how to get it off the start-up list. I still have the problem with the yabax.dll file. Havent been able to find anything about it on a search of HD or google.
