    I just removed a ton of spyware and now when the puter boots up it says "Error loading w4750abe.dll, specified module could not be found"

    Did I accidently get rid of something I shouldn't have?

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    That's because you may have deleted the malware DLL file but you did not remove the registry key that is loading it at startup. If you know how to use regedit, you can locate the Run key that is trying to load this file and delete it. Backup your registry first.

    You can also do this with other tools like HijackThis, but you will need to do this on your own if you know how to use HijackThis. We do not look at HijackThis logs without having our full cleaning procedures in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support first run. We require this because we are a full malware cleaning forum, not just a HijackThis log reading forum. There is a big difference between the two! If you want to perform a full cleaning, run this sticky thread procedure and attach the three requested logs.
