    SQLK.dll

    I have sqlk.dll that is being loaded from the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\windows NT\Currentversion\windows key. When I delete the value of Applnit_Dlls it keeps coming back.
    Help!!!

    I have found a post in the D-A-L.com archives that included this problem:

    http://www.d-a-l.com/help/archive/index.php/t-1063.html

    The user had Windows XP but I believe that similar instructions will apply to Windows NT or 2000 as well. Owen, our security expert gave the following advice:

    Once in safe mode follow these instructions:

    Once in safe mode, Navigate to and right click this file and select properties:
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\sqlk.dll <-- file

    use the security tab on the file and take ownership. Instructions are below. This document also explains it, but the instructions below are sufficient:
    How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308421)

    Change the 'everyone special' to
    'you> with Admin rights-> FULL control
    Then try to delete it, if that fails try to rename
    it first to different name+ext.
    Then if that fails try to rename it again to different name+ext.

    Ex:
    sqlk.dll > baddie.txt
    baddie.txt > badfile.111
    Few times... Etc.
