login.dotomi.com appears in Network in Windows Explorer (SCARY!)

I just opened up my "Network" node in Windows Explorer and there is an entry there called "login.dotomi.com". I did not add it. Dotomi's website describes itself a marketing company and is apparently owned by AOL.

I did not add this connection and I do not know how to remove it. I am really concerned.

I have reported this site to Microsoft's "Report a website" (Internet Explorer | [wheel] | Safety | Report unsafe website) and I apologize to them if this is not their doing. But before now, I have never visited their site.

  1. How can anyone add a site such as this to my network without me knowing?
  2. I know we entering a new era of hacking and security concerns, but shouldn't W2K8-R2 protect against this?
  3. How can I remove this and prevent this security hole from happening again?

Thanks,
Bob.
