I'm running Windows ME and every time I start my computer I get the following "Error Starting Program", dialogue box, which contains the following message; "A required .DLL file, VSMONAPI.DLL, was not found."

When I shut down my computer I get the "Nisserv" dialogue box with the following message; "Nisserv has caused an error in KERNEL32.DLL Nisserv will now close. If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer." When I restart my computer I get the same error messages.

What can I do to restore/repair these file(s)? I have the Windows ME recovery disc my computer's manufacturer sent me originally.

Please be as specific as possible with the instructions on how I can correct this since my experience with computers is not very extensive.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Did you have Zone Alarm installed before? If you did you may want to install it again and that remove it from the ADD\REMOVE programs.
