Are you able to start your game ? Tho ?

Sadly no, never starts. I think that binkw32.dll is used for video playback.
EDIT:
Meant those intro movies in game.

What's the deal?  Just bought this game and no work arounds are posted on the web.  Do I actually have to uninstall my virus protection to get this to work? Unacceptable!!!!

I think you better fix Black Ops 2 installation from Steam:
Go to Library > Right click Black Ops 2 > Properties > Local File > Verify integrity of game cache

If you want manually do it, copy binkw32.dll to Black Ops 2 directory. I have Steam installed in D: driver:
D:\Gamez\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops II.

If you have installed it on C: it could be here (not sure if that Steam folder is default name for it):
Win7 64-bit
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops II.

Win7 32-bit and Win XP:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops II.

EDIT:
Fixed missing info on Steam fix section
