Be carefull to not remove all of the .dlls in that folder for sure in it can cause winndows explorer not to work and, well that means you can't do much:) just get rid of the C:\PROGRA~2\SearchProtect\SearchProtect\bin\SPVC64Loader.dll as said above you will find it in your c drive in x86 programs, but check the folder in there that is the x64 as well. then make sure you uninstall and get rid of these horrid programs! They create fake copies of dlls and,install them/attach them to other programs. Then thay can change the path used for it to function. When your machine starts up it will use the dll that is set to run, even if it is a bs one! Cause you machine already sees that it is loaded:) Fun stuff!! Also the same dll could be in several folders, not just this issue, but this can happen a lot anymore and, affect all kinds of the true dlls, like I said they don't even load. the people that make this BS need to be shot! We should not have to have whole sites about nothing but fixing problems, that other people have desgined and put out there to affect as many machines as they can:( it's a damn shame. The internet is a wonderful and, most likely the best invention yet. It's just damn follish to see that people are using it in such a ridiculous fashion.... They might as well go out and spray paint graffiti or knock off mailboxes with a bat. Any way thanks for reading this, I hope I explained the nature of false dlls ok. And sorry for the rant at the end, but I just cannot stand any kind of a destructive mindset, especially these companies that in a lot of cases make money by messing up your computer?????? Again thanks you all, and sorry for ranting:)
