A quick Google search says that yt.dll belongs to Yahoo toolbar or companion, but if it's in the windows or windows\system32 folders it may be malware. I don't have it on my system (XP Home), so it may not be a standard Windows file.

I'd try searching for it on your system. If you find it in a program files\yahoo directory, try uninstalling Yahoo Toolbar/Companion. If you find it in windows or windows\system32, try getting properties on it to see what it belongs to. You could also try renaming it to yt.bak to see if the problem goes away.
