For 3 months I've not been able to use my computer because I Un-installed it - I now know it came with my qwest install program and i am pissed. All this time they've told me it was "MY" computer that was causing the problem. - I only discovered this because I put the same qwest program on an old win 98 computer (with nothing on it) to use....and quess what....I found "NewDot" and once again deleted it....The minute I did that - I could not get on the internet. How messed up is this?
