"1,888 .dll files... Wonder how many are repeats?"

this is another feature of a norton systemworks component, called cleansweep.

in addition to 'internet sweeps' where cache and cookies and activex and plug-in cleanups are performed, basic hard drive cleanups such as redundant DLL finder and duplicate file finder and orphan finder can be run to sort through these voluminous entries and clean out the garbage.
