It just means a DLL (Dynamic Link Library) file that's needed by the
program isn't on your system. This one contains routines needed by Visual
Basic 3.0 programs, which have been put into the DLL so they don't need to
be in every VB program that gets written, thus saving space.
If you think you should hate Bill Gates for this, take a look at your
\windows\system directory and marvel at the amount of DLL files in there,
without which hardly any of your Windows-based software would work...
(FYI, on my system, there is 81.5 MB of DLL files in that directory, out
of a total of 115 MB worth of files.)
Anyway, you should be able to find this file by doing a websearch for its
filename. It's only 390 kB, so it's not a major download.
