I keep getting this annoying message after logging in under 8.1. I never got that before:

C:\Users\Kent\AppData\Local\Conduit\BackgroundContainer\BackgroundContainer.dll

The Specified module could not be found.

It was in a window with the title RunDLL

Please help me. It doesn't prevent me from using the computer and I think it is a spyware residual (Conduit) which
I had removed via Spyhunter....


Thank you for any help you might be able to give me.

Conduit in itself is a toolbar package that is mostly harmless, but it depends on who made it. I use it for my Band:

socialspit Toolbar Download

Its the only toolbar I ever use, but Malwarebytes still detects it as Malware. I only use it for personal use, and I block features that are potentially malicious.

If you are having trouble removing it, Conduit Themselves show you how to get rid of it, and I trust their method.

    Recently lost my Windows 8 on my main PC, had to go back to Windows 7.
It looks like an error message which should NOT be there. How do you get rid of it?
