re: rundll32.exe missing Monday, January 10, 2005 at 8:44 pm Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rob Hook (2 messages posted) Hi Jack I am running Windows 98, and tried to follow your instructions but I could not find the WIN_17.CAB, I get the feeling a virus has removed the RunDLL32.exe from my computer and it means I can't do alot. Any help would be much appreciated. Do you know where I can get a new RunDLL32.exe file?
