When Spybot lists potential problems, there are two items I can't identify. Cydoor (which I previously allowed Spybot to delete, then had problems) and New.net. Should I keep these, or can I delete them?

Delete, they are security problems...Cydoor is usually from Kazaa, et al.. one of many from that source.

Could try a manual removal of cydoor (http://accs-net.com/smallfish/cydoor.htm)

NewDotNet has its own problems (http://allentech.net/parasite/NewDotNet.html) in part because of the different varieties.

What kind of problems were experienced after removing the items?

I was responding to the question Jeeza.

Is the problem you are asking about related to an application?
