Start out by getting rid of NewDot Net this is a browerser HiJacker, here is a link to help you.
http://articles.networktechs.com/400-p1.php

smss.exe should be running in the system32 folder, run a virus scan on it, this may be a virus.

Do this then re run HiJack this file

Hi, please run HJT again and select, Do system scan only. Then check the following.

If after uninstalling you lose internet connection please download WinsockXPFix (WinXP only) and run it.

Looks good except for this entry
O23 - Service: PRTG Service - Paessler Router Traffic Grapher (PRTGService) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\PRTG Traffic Grapher\PRTG Traffic Grapher.exe (file missing)

Check this out and repair if needed

the PRTG Traffic Grapher i have uninstalled long back even after uninstallation some files were sitting in C:\Documents and Settings\krt\Application Data which i have deleted manually, but iam unable to remove the following part
O23 - Service: PRTG Service - Paessler Router Traffic Grapher (PRTGService) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\PRTG Traffic Grapher\PRTG Traffic Grapher.exe (file missing) usig HJT i have also seen a registry entry for Paessler Router Traffic Grapher and removed manually
but iam not sure whether more regitry entries for the same exist.

Any how thanks for your help.
i will put the ewido log file later for final checkup for problems.
