    Default Cryptic StartUp Message Since Running Spybot

    Since I started using Spybot about three weeks ago---I have a new problem.
    When starting my computer-- (OS Win XP Home Edition)--at the very end of the load, a message appears on my screeen:

    RTHDCPL.EXE - Illegal System DLL Relocation

    A more detailed description follows and it ends by stating "The vendor supplying the DLL should be contacted for a new DLL"

    I have no way of knowing who to contact or for that matter what this is about--but it is more than a bit unsettling when I get this big red X with a message each time I start my computer. Is there someone at Spybot who can help me decipher this cryptic message and get it fixed so that it is no longer a problem and does not pop up everytime I load my computer?

    I await Spybot assistance--thanks
