AdAwareAntiSpam.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like AdAwareAntiSpam.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like AM_Delta.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Adaware Antivirus) could share the same AdAwareAntiSpam.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.
Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when AdAwareAntiSpam.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Adaware Antivirus is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common AdAwareAntiSpam.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - AdAwareAntiSpam.dll.
- AdAwareAntiSpam.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files\adaware\adaware antivirus\adaware antivirus\12.6.1005.11662\AdAwareAntiSpam.dll.
- Cannot register AdAwareAntiSpam.dll.
- Cannot start Adaware Antivirus. A required component is missing: AdAwareAntiSpam.dll. Please install Adaware Antivirus again.
- Failed to load AdAwareAntiSpam.dll.
- The application has failed to start because AdAwareAntiSpam.dll was not found.
- The file AdAwareAntiSpam.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because AdAwareAntiSpam.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your AdAwareAntiSpam.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Adaware Antivirus), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, AdAwareAntiSpam.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Adaware Antivirus, system crash while loading AdAwareAntiSpam.dll, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
