  • I've been following this thread with interest. Last week, AVG Free Edition detected a couple of Trojan Horses following a full scan. AVG seemed to deal with them successfully, but every time I boot up my laptop, I receive the following error message:

    Error loading
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\atgban.dll
    The specified module could not be found

    I emptied the virus vault in AVG following the scan. Has this caused the error message, and is there a solution to removing it? Thanks.
