This IE prompt commonly appears when a page tries to load something that Internet Explorer associates with the Trusted Sites zone. In this thread the mix of an ad callback (servedby.advertising.com) and a Trusted entry that looks like a local DLL (shdoclc.dll) suggests either a malformed Trusted Sites value (a file/path was added instead of a domain) or a PUP/scareware altering zone or startup entries. 's HijackThis shows an unfamiliar "registry repair" startup item; 's suggestion to remove the obvious oddities is a correct first step.

Recommended sequence to resolve the dialog:

  1. Re-running HijackThis and removing the items pointed out by @Michael_Knight, followed by a reboot, often clears the immediate problem.
  2. Inspect Trusted Sites in Internet Options -> Security -> Trusted Sites -> Sites and remove any entry that is not a proper domain (anything that looks like a local path or DLL is wrong).
  3. Remove unfamiliar "registry repair" or similar scareware from Add/Remove Programs and run an up-to-date anti-malware/adware scanner (cleaners such as Malwarebytes or an adware remover are commonly effective).
  4. Use Autoruns or msconfig to locate and disable suspicious startup items; repeat scanning after disabling.
  5. If manual cleanup is required, Trusted Sites live under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains; export the key first and remove malformed values.

A caution: editing the registry can break the system if done carelessly—always export keys before deleting values. Malformed Trusted Site values (file paths instead of domain names) are the most likely cause of an IE dialog that names a DLL; removing the bad value or the PUP that created it typically stops the warning.

Additional context: ad network redirects are often transient, so clearing temp files and removing extra toolbars (several are present in the log) reduces exposure. Testing the same pages in a clean IE profile or a modern browser will help confirm whether the problem is specific to the infected/modified IE installation.

HI. Rerun Hijack this and fix the following entries:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Stationery\Blank.htm

O8 - Extra context menu item: &Search - ?p=ZUxdm082YYUS

Then reboot.
