    hi.. i have a ibm thinkpad 560 running windows 98 at startup i get error message about newdot dll missing. I know this is a spyware file. I cannot now use internet explorer. the laptop does not have a cd rom and the external floppy drive no longer works. Can anyone tell me how to manually get rid of this please. any help would be grateful Thanks

    Try starting in safe mode. Go to Install/uninstall and remove newdotnet
    Reboot. Should do it.

    Doesn't Ad-Aware recognize that as spyware? If so it'll remove it all for you.

    Ad Aware, SpyBot, etc. will remove new.net software, but it breaks internet connectivity. Usually, new market's fixes will correct the problem, but I have had to do a manual removal and reinstall of TCP on a few computers.

    netdot.net when it installs also creates an uninstaller, but you wont find it in add/remove or on the start menu. its located in c:\program files\newdot.net

    This refers to an domain site called http://www.new.net/ its a parasite it logs urls you have been to...when I removed net.net.domain from my computer it was gone you can also read about it here...

    It is in your add/remove files under new.net. domain ? Has and little blue almost like a @ sign in front of it...its a domain name place. I didn't find that out till I got the NewDot.Dll under rundll error....

    Welcome to WD mnmarilyn .

    The thread your reply'ing to is a little old ,

    if your having problems start a new post

    with what problems your having and

    PC info like :brand ,model# and OS (98 or 2k , XP)

    and whatever you think might help .
