Is your project "updated" completely from the version-control (like VSS)?
Have you "get latest version" for the whole project first(include the
project file itself)?
Has your staff checked-in the version of project file that have the
reference removed?
Anyway, I'll suggest you to remove the "JIT-ed assemblys" from
%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\{version}\Tempora ry ASP.NET Files\{your web
path} folder as probably the DLL in question somehow have remains in that
folder. (You shouldn't need to do this, but just for sure.)
Also, check to see if the DLL is referenced in:
a) %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\{version}\CONFIG\ machine.config
b) "web.config" of any parent folder of your web application.
by seraching for it's name in these files. If it exist but the web
application can't find one, it'll report missing assembly.

The problem is that there is no reference to the DLL anywhere in the
solution. I have other developers running this identical solution with no
problems but on my machine it won't compile if I don't have this DLL in my
website's bin folder. I recently formatted my hard drive and re-installed
XP Pro and it is still doing this, but only on my PC. This DLL is an OLD
DLL that we used to use but was removed from the solution a year ago.
Any ideas on where this problem is coming from?
