Default message I get when I start my computer- what does it mean?

Just recently each time I turn my computer on I get this message .

Unable to locate kernal component wtkernal.

It doesn't seem to be interfering with anything but since I'm such a novice
I wouldn't know. Is this important? Can I fix it? Thanks for any help and
please keep it simple I am computer illiterate.

HI
wtkernel.dll is the dynamic link library file for the wild tangent game
channnel spyware..if you removed that then the system is still looking for
it. Try using msconfig to see if there are any mentions of wild tangent
there and uncheck them.
Alternatively use the removal tool
http://support.wildgames.com/uninstall.html
Regards

John
