Everytime I open my computer I get this error message. I've taken out the program which caused it but I need it and I spent a lot of money for it. Is there a patch for this?

It is likely that the infection you posted about in your other thread is related to this problem... I suggest that you get that problem resolved and then see if this problem is still relevant... If it is, please provide a lot more info about the details of the problem... What program, what is it used for and so on...

Meanwhile, I am moving your other thread to the Security forum since it will get the needed attention there... Please read this thread and post a log so that we can help you:

The dll message is related to CoolWebSearch (http://us.trendmicro.com/us/products/personal/CWShredder/) toolbar as pushed by Smileycentral.

But do follow Budfred's advice because if you have one baddy you may have many and some are very good at "hide and go seek". Beware of using free software in the future unless recommended by a known and reliable source.
