If you provide a little more details(OS, application error..?) we could help you faster/better.

DBX error-types are reported by the ObjectDBX library. They often come from 3rd party add-on applications, especially from LT applications.

Is this an AutoCAD error?

The computer is a Dell Dimension desktop ,with XP. All of a sudden it started to get pop ups of this error,I don't know what is causing it.

This computer has Auto CAD on it, I uses at work, But the error comes up randomly ever it Auto CAD is not running.

Try this

OR

Always apply the latest Service Packs for your Autodesk CAD application (and possibly also for the add-on). This error can be also caused by a HW problem or collision with another running application or driver.

You don't need AutoCAD to be running to get that error.

Did you have a prior version of any Autodesk software installed, or a help application that you've since uninstalled?

From what little I gathered from a quickie google (always remember, google is your friend - first and last), the "DBX CAS 4" error is fairly common with Autodesk products.

Essentially, it seems to boil down to a security problem where RSA encryption cannot be done properly.

There is an msdn forum thread that gives a brief discussion and some links to some fixes here, and a work-around from Autodesk on page 6 of this document. However, since that work-around involves deleting a value from the registry, make sure you back up the registry first before you delete it!

If that doesn't do it, or if you're unsure about editing the registry, then check through some of the other hits that come up on the aforementioned google and see if anything else strikes your fancy.
