Missing NEWDOT~2.dll

I have Windows XP Home Edition. I ran the MS anti-spyware
and now I get this message on startup that this dll
file/module is missing. What do I do?

Thanks for any info!

Hi Troy,
Run another scan. If problem persists, try msconfig from the run line, and
see if it's loading from startup.

I have the same Windows XP Home Edition and am getting
the same message on startup, but it doesn't seem to be
effecting anything. Does it for you?

Troy;
Start/All Programs/Accessories/Command Prompt
Type "netsh winsock reset" ENTER
Follow prompts and reboot.

Then IMMEDIATELY run an updated virus scan.
Then run AntiSpyware again.

This is not caused by AntiSpyware.
It is caused by the Spyware that has been removed

This message shouldn't affect operation of the machine--it is just an
annoyance at startup. You could get rid of it using MSCONFIG. Find the
entry in the startup tab which is attempting to load this item and uncheck
it.

If you are sure of your skills, you can also remove it from the registry,
with care.
