14. Remove any malicious files and folders discovered by MSRT by either allowing the software to removed them from your computer or by manual deletion. Be sure to empty your Recycle Bin.

How to Edit a Dynamic Link Library

1. Use Spices.Decompiler (see Resources). Spices.Decompiler allows you to take any DLL on your computer and decompile it, or take it apart. You can then make edits to the contents of the DLL (if its an icon library) or make changes to the way the DLL operates (if it contains instructions). Spices.Decompiler is free to use for an unlimited period of time.
2. Use PE Explorer (see Resources). PE Explorer allows you to see exactly what is contained in a DLL without taking it apart first. If you determine that edits need to be made to its contents, you can then do so all from the PE Explorer program window. After editing, you must remember to recompile the DLL file. PE Explorer, like Spices.Decompiler, is free to use.
3. Use Resource Hacker (see Resources). Resource Hacker is a program that can edit the contents of DLLs as well as a wide variety of other Windows-based files. Resource Hacker is only equipped to deal with DLL files designed for the 32-bit version of the Windows operating system. As of January 2011, no version of Resource Hacker exists that lets you edit 64-bit DLLs.

How to Fix a quot;JVM terminated. Exit code=13quot; Error in Eclipse

1. First, realize that this error is caused when you are attempting to start Eclipse using the wrong version of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). So you need to realize what JVM you are starting with.
2. If you are using Linux, you can type "which java" on the command line. Otherwise, you can type "java -version". This will give you the Java version.
3. Now, you need to research the correct JVM for the version of Eclipse that you are using. For example, if you are using Eclipse Europa, it may require the 1.5 JVM to start. When you initially get the error message, you may see something that says "requiredJavaVersion=1.5", which will tell you what version of the JVM is required.
4. Make sure that you have the correct version of Java installed.
5. Now, you can either change the Java version environment variable or you can tell Eclipse to use a different version of the virtual machine upon startup. To do this you use the "vm" flag.For example: ./eclipse -vm /home/seed/app/jre1.5.0_10/bin
6. Now that you have changed the version of the Java Virtual Machine that you are using to start Eclipse, the error should be resolved. Good luck!
