"Illegal System DLL relocation" ????
10:30 AM EDT 4/4/07
Hi all

I just got this message on a computer.
"Illegal System DLL Relocation: The System DLL Kernal32.dll was relocated in memory. The application will not run properly. The relocation occurred because the DLL C:\Windows\System\MPR.dll occupied an address range reserved for Windows system DLLs. The vender supplying the DLL should be contacted for a new DLL"

I'm confused and lost!! What does this mean?? What caused it?? How can I fix it and is it ok to continue to let patrons use this computer???
Thanks for any help and advice!

Hi-

Any idea what was happening when this popped up? Was it at atartup? Otherwise what applications were running?

And is this on Windows XP?

... actually a little more searching turned up this at Microsoft:

It looks like there is a new Windows update to address this.
