Hiya,
I keep getting the following message box just as Windows Vista has loaded:
Error loading C:\Windows\system32\sprt_ads.dll
The specified module could not be found.
Do you know how to get rid of it? Thank you.

I beleive it's malware.
Run msconfig.exe from the start/search line
and check the startup tab for an entry that loads that library file and uncheck it.
Reboot and then you may want to run one of the online malware scanners to check your
system.

Quick, the spa-start was indeed in the startup, thanks. Could you recommend any online
malware checks? I have not had to do this in a long while.
Ta.

Just Google using the phrase:free online malware scan.
I got hits from just about all the heavy hitters.
Heres one of the better ones:
