    Error message system 32
    My computer periodically restarts itself and I then get the following error message:

    c:\windows\system32\axmtxtr.dll

    Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

    Thanks

    My guess is it's part of the trojan Downloader-AXM. It helps other malware download updates (yes, even viruses have updates). If you're running antivirus software, be sure the definitions are up to date and run it again. It may be that Downloader-AXM was partly removed but bits & pieces of it are still around.

    If you're not running antivirus software, here's an excellent free program:

    AVG Free Advisor - Free antivirus and anti-spyware downloads

    I also recommend running Windows Update regularly, and running both AdAware and Spybot S&D (both also free):

    Ad-Aware @ Lavasoft - The Original Anti-Spyware Company - Lavasoft

    The home of Spybot-S&D!
