Error message on boot up! msnp32.dll 1

[funkjunky]

When windows starts up and the wall paper loads, just before the icons apear I get the message:
'unable to locate dynamic link library. msnp32.dll. missing'
How do I get rid of it.
I have only just reformatted the HDD and loaded windowa 98 2nd edition.

did you install any network protocols or msn? if I'm not mistaken that stands for microsoft network protocol or look in your system.ini under run= did you have any errors running setup?

go to your system information, system file checker
and extract file and then type that file name to be extracted it will then prompt where to put it put it in I think windows system or just the windows folder it will then prompt for source put in your 98 cd and copy it from there; reboot
