Post all replies to the original thread, please.
oklnccdr.dll is not a valid Windows file.

Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to
http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30,
http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22,
http://castlecops.com/forum67.html, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**
If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.

Did you run an antivirus or antispyware scan recently on this computer? The
behavior you describe is usually what happens when an antivirus or
antispyware program identifies a file as malware, deletes the file, but doesn't
clean up the mechanism that launches the malware at startup.
Here's a program from Microsoft that will help you stop the error messages.
AutoRuns for Windows v9.21
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb963902.aspx
Once you've downloaded and extracted the files, run autoruns.exe.
Look on the Everything tab for an entry that lists oklnccdr.dll in the Image
path
column.
Right click on that entry and select Search Online from the menu.
Odds are that you'll come up with an empty search. This pretty much confirms
that it was some type of malware that your scan deleted.
Uncheck the item.
Restart your computer. If you no longer see the error message, you can go back
and delete the entry in Autoruns.
Just to be on the safe side, you might consider taking steps to make sure the
system is malware free. Here's a site with general instructions on cleaning a
computer.
