Just installed IE7...error message on boot

I just updated/installed IE 7 on my Toshiba laptop. During boot, I get this
error message:

SmartBridge Alerts: MotiveSB.exe - Entry Point not found.....Procedure
entry point Get ProcessImageFileNameW could not be located in the dynamic
link library PSAPI.DLL

What does this mean and how can I fix it? IE 7 seems to be running OK but
it's an annoying message every time I turn on my computer.

Thanks!

Try the fix described here (about PSAPI.DLL error):
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/aa740486.aspx
See also:
http://www.enhanceie.com/ie/troubleshoot.asp
Problem: Error message about PSAPI.DLL
If you install IE7 and the following error message begins to show:
The procedure entry point GetProcessImageFileNameW could not be located in
the dynamic link library PSAPI.DLL
1. Search your hard disk for PSAPI.dll.
2. Any copies of this DLL that are found outside of the Windows or
Windows\System32 folder should be renamed to PSAPI.bak.
Reboot.

Again...
*Do not rename the PSAPI.DLL file in your \\Windows\System32 directory*.

Re: Just installed IE7...error message on boot

Thanks Vincenzo!

Just did a search and looks like I have lots of DLLs. So I rename ALL the
files except those in sys32?

Sorry for my last reply.
Yes. Rename all the PSAPI.DLL in your hard disk except those in System32!
