Help- how to delete a dialogue box

I am a new member. My neighbor downloaded a CD from his computer and it would not run. Later a dialogue box appeared, SMSC.EXE- "File corrupted, please run a virus check." SpyBot- Search & Destroy doesn't indicate that I have any virus. The dialogue box only appears when I start my computer.

Thanks,
Apadana

Spybot does not detect viruses.

What program/software is issuing that dialog? It is important to attempt to determine what program/software is issuing the message. It could be a real/legitamate message from another installed anti-virus or anti-malware product or a message from a Trojan or rouge product trying enticing you buy their product.

Please elaborate if you can.
