sbmdl.dll is a program that was installed by you at sometime after you had purchased your computer, this would not have arrived as preinstalled software on your computer. Always double check the disk location as shown below, as that will help verify if it is spyware or virus related, or if it is installed in the proper disk location. The folder location is shown below. This sbmdl.dll DLL program will run as a BHO in your Internet Explorer browser. This has been reported as an adware and trojan related program. Action should be taken immediately to remove this. Since it appears in your system startup, you should remove it from your system startup as a BHO (runs in web browser) and reboot (and verify it is no longer there after rebooting). You will also see the task running in your processes list on the task manager. You may also find the scit.exe file installed with this, both should be removed. If this were on my computer, I would take action to remove it immediately. You may want to use a BHO remover to toggle BHO on or off if you are concerned about these in the future (if you do not have a BHO program then you can use Complete Cleanup, which comes with a BHO on/off button and a BHO remover).
