Your HJT logs doesn't point to any obvious culprit.

1. Can you give us some history/details concerning when the error started to occur and what, if any, changes were made to the system/software around that time?

2. rundll32.exe is a critical Windows file; does it actually exist on your system, or is it really missing? If the file is missing or corrupt, you can see if installing/extracting a fresh copy of it does the trick. General instructions for extracting fresh copies of system files can be found here:

Hi,

I managed to extract the file from disc but initially I was told to extract it to "c:/windows/system", but this did not work, so I tried extracting to just "c:/windows" instead and this solved the problem.

Looks like you got it right. :)

In Windows 98, C:\Windows is the correct location for the rundll32.exe file.
