After my computer boots up, a window pops up stating>>Error loading C:\Program Files\Wild Tangent\Apps\CDA\cdaEngine0400.dll The specified module could not be found.
I saw this in the Q & A section but it had been closed and I couldn't see the outcome. Help please...HoosYrBaby

Download Hijack This and the Hoster program. Open Higjack This and run a scan. You can download them from here. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/Merijn/hijackthis_sfx.exe
Find the entry below and check it.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WildTangent CDA] RUNDLL32.exe "C:\Program Files\WildTangent\Apps\CDA\cdaEngine0400.dll",cdaEngineMain
Click Fix Checked.
Delete Wild Tangent if it shows in Add/Remove programs.
Open the Hoster program and click Restore Original Hosts. Click ok or yes for the prompts and close the program.
Show all your hidden and system files through My Computer and delete the C:\Program Files\Wild Tangent folder.
Reboot.
Wild Tangent is an adware that causes pop-ups. It is a real pain but this should remove it.

I was unable to try this solution as I don't know where to fine the 04 - HKLM >>> that you stated. Please help and I will finish.

Go to Start => Run and type in MSCONFIG and click on OK.
Click on the last tab of MSCofig. Uncheck any entries for Wild tangent and that will prevent it from trying to load at start up.

The HKLM is a registry key sub title that stands for HKey Local Machine
Using the registry can cause system problems if not used properly
