Ok my pc recently(within the past few days) crashed and I have no idea why.

I problem is that when I start it up I get
"Taskmng.exe(or something) has caused an error and must close.

I assume thats task manager.
then I get the error

box Titled RUNDLL
and it says "error loading w6563452.dll the specific module could not be found."

and under that error theres another one titled
RUNDLL
and it says "error loading C:/PROGRA~1/NEWDOT~1/NEWDOT~1.dll

and then the desktop comes up and everything appears to work. but if I try to go on the web, the browser goes no where, but my computer says it is connected to a wireless network...

If anyone knows what to do help me out, its like my bread and butter.
 
I have an idea of how to fix this, I will post details in the morning when I look something up.
 
Have you tried hitting it very hard?
 
http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/newdot~2.dll.html - found this, may be the same as your "newdot~1" error, some of the user comments on this page sound similar to what you described.

As far as "w6563452.ddl" goes, never heard of it, not sure what it's even related to in the slightest bit.

If you're certain of the "taskmng.exe" error, this was a malicious program dropped by a virus, info here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/taskmng.exe-13423.html

After seeing all this, I'm not going to comment on where any of this could have come from, just that it's done the damage and the best and least desirable way to fix all this is to do a complete wipe of your hard drive and start over from scratch and go through the tedious process of installing/updating everything all over again just to get back to where you left off before this mess. As for any other methods to fix the damage, you could try doing some uninstalls of any affected programs, do a complete virus scan and then reinstall the programs you had to remove and see how it turns out, this may or may not work, depends on the extent of the damage done.

Sorry if my methods seem a little hack and slash, but I'll either do a quickie fix or a complete reformat to fix heavy damage, that's just how I do it.
 
Well I looked at all the stuff you posted Gattsu and it seems my worm is a winding worm indeed. Basically its a bitch. Im no good with removing this kind of stuff and i hate to be a pain. apparently it has installed itself into the registry

I would wipe my hard drive but I can never remember how. Ive got a dell so I cant really reinstall windows because, theyre asses and dont give you the OS disks.

Looks like i had better use virus wear. would house call be able to get rid of this? not that i can get on the internet, but just wondering.

I suppose step one would be finding what the name of the program is, so i can manually remove it. After reading what this has done, I am astonished, at what it does. Ive got 4 computers at my house including this one, 3 laptops, 2 are mine ones my girlfriends, and im selling one. Are they at risk? theyre not on a network, but still.

Im nervous, because i just got a new 3 grand laptop hah.. so.. dont rob me..
