it means your xpbutton ocx component is not correcty registered because the file is missing or invalid... to fix this problem you might want to recover this component... how? i don't know... lol

Hello and Welcome to Daniweb !
First of all do not post support question here and please read the rules and faq's first to get informed.

xpbutton.ocx is malware infection you need to remove it through anti-spyware.

Im sorry ive put this question in the wrong place,like i said i know nothing about computers. it wasnt intentional.

ive got spybot on my computer would that help? thats the only anti-spyware ive got on my computer. its actually driving me mad because it appears the instant i turn the computer on. its not actually affecting how anything runs on it, but i know it shouldnt be on my screen so its very annoying

i think that could be the main problem. the computer was rebooted about a month ago and ive had this problem ever since. and also for some unknown reason i keep being told my internet explorer has encountered a fatal error and needs to close.

Think ive got big problems
