Application has failed to start b/c qtcf,dll was not found

I recently had my computer serviced by the Geek squad for virus removal, I tried to use itunes and connect my ipod and I keep getting this message by: itunesHelper.exe- unable to locate component. "This application has failed to start because QTFC.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." I have tried to install Itunes and quick time player, but the same error pops up and I can't close the tab. Any suggestions?

QTCF.dll


Let's doublecheck on the current locations of that dll.

Go "Start > Search" and then do an all files and folders search on QTCF.dll. In "More advanced options", make sure the following items are all checked:

*Search System folders*
*Search hidden files and folders*
*Search subfolders*

What QTCF.dll files do you find, and what are their file locations?
