RE: Annoying start up pop up....
Newdot is spyware so you probably have deleted it but its still on your startup. Note that it says that the file cannot be found.


1. Click on your Start button, and select the Run option.
2. In the box that appears type  msconfig
3. You will see a screen with several tabs at the top. The General tab will be the default selection. On that tab the 3rd. option down is Selective Startup. Click that box to put a check mark in it.
4. Select the Startup tab, which is at the top, and far right of the window.
5. Scroll down the list of programs, and uncheck "newdot" from the menu.
6. Click the Apply button.
7. Click Ok, and select the Reboot Now option.
