You haven't said what version of windows you have or what causes that error to appear. We can only work with the information you give us!

What antimalware sotware do you have and have you scanned with it recently? If so, exactly what did it find? It could well be malware that has afected your system!

Hello Rik.Am using avast.have done full scan.also downloaded trial avg pro,did same,suspect it's a registry error. await any comments from you.

Both avast and avg are antivirus programs, not antimalware programs. You should download Mbam and do a full scan with it - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Can you post the mbam log so I can have a look at it? This is as a precaution, the infections you had may have left something behind and I'd like to make sure your system is completely clean.
