Welcome to the forum, have you resolved these issues? I see some junk I would get rid of and an out of date Java program that can cause you real problems: http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
but nothing that should be causing the problem you describe. To even point you in a direction I would need more information that you supplied. "Sonic something" "message on some dll file" just does not give me anything. Google will return information if the error message is complete and "word for word". Knowing no more that you posted, I would say to give System File Checker a try to see if a file is missing or corrupt.

Something here may help you?

If you wish me to look further, you will need to follow the directions here:
"BEFORE you POST" -Preliminary Steps
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288

Once you have complied with all instructions post the results of the required antivirus online scan, a new HJT log and come complete information about the issue. I still do not know if this information will help with with may not be a malware issue, but I can not proceed without it.

Thanks
