What version of the .Net Framework do you have?
What registry cleaner do you use?
When did this start?

EDIT: Also, check the Event Log. Look at every Warning and Error that's happened recently, and post any that you think might be related to the error.

 Grin found a microsoft support utility that fixed this. should'a googled more before posting. somehow using it to remove Logitech Setpoint from startup (a program i've had for years, measures my mouse's battery) made the issue go away. weird, but w/e.

in answer to your questions:
-latest version
-ccleaner's built in one
-today, bout 40 min ago

....is that the event center in w7?

1: 4?
2: CCleaner's built in Registry cleaner is horrible. it misses most errors and has a ton of false positives. Use Glary Utilities for registry cleaning.
4: No. Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools (Located in System & Maintenance) -> Event Viewer.

Also, if you use CCleaner, try downloading CCEnhancer. http://singularlabs.com/software/ccenhancer/download/

An adblocker I removed months ago >_>

I wiped my computer of it really well, but apparently I missed something?

....to do what?

i removed it from my computer, uninstalled, registry cleaned, and a search of my HDD for files with the program name (or developer name) came up with zero results. Undecided out of ideas here.

Yeah, that's the whole question here... What is this thing that's causing the problem? Is it a fragment of that adblocker that's been left behind somehow, and if so, where's it hiding?

This is an utterly strange thing. Can you access any AV program download sites?(Like, obviously the good ones. =P)

 I actually might have an idea as to why that happened.
 
 I don't think it's exactly the same situation as the one my brother got caught into, but first I have a question; did this happen after you recieved an update for Windows 7?
