Hi, my name is Bill and I am a new user to this forum.

My question is how I can get rid of a boot up message 'ThunkConnect32 not found in Kernel32.dll' ?

I normally just close the box and proceed but I would like to know where it comes from and how to get rid of it.

I'd appreciate input from anyone who can help me resolve this situation. Thanks

If you download autoruns and shellexview and disable all non-Microsoft items, then reboot, does the problem go away? Also, do you happen to be running nvidia drivers on your machine? Something is starting likely via a rundll32 call that is trying to use an API that is no longer in kernel32. I've only seen this on XP systems with nvidia drivers installed, and updating the driver set usually fixes it.
