Hello,
On start up, I get the following RunDLL - There was a problem starting c:\users\%USERNAME%\appdata\local\tbhostsupport\TBHostSupport.dll. The specified module could not be found.
How do I remove it?
thanks Jim

I deleted the TBHostsupport.dll assuming (incorrectly) that it was part of the conduit malware. I subsequently, on next boot up, got the error window that was mentioned by another person in a previous post. Now that I've done some 'light' reading on this, I am wondering how I can get a copy of the file. www.dll-files.com didn't have it. Any suggestions anyone has are warmly appreciated. Thanks.

I had a few .dll issues, API Support and TB Host support. I downloaded the freefixer and removed the files and now I don't receive the module not found message on startup. I am just writing to give you my utmost THANKS for solving this issue for me. I've been going crazy to try to fix it with no success until now. I really appreciate it, Thanks again.

I had to write to say thanks. Worked exactly as you said. So often these pages advertise a fix and download this to fix it....then it turns out to be another problem with the fix you just installed. Huge thanks for honestly providing what you advertise.
