What classes can dispell dots from Warlocks? Priests can dispel magic
and mages can remove curses?

How are they removed? If a warlock stacks 3 dots on a mage, can the
mage remove them one at a time starting with the last applied?... like
1,2,3 are applied, then the mage can only remove them 3,2,1 in that
order?

Affliction warlocks have a dot called "unstable affliction" I think,
that can only be dispelled with a nasty side affect of 1000+ damage and
silence for 5 seconds.

So, if a warlock applied two dots then applied the 'unstable
affliction', can the first two be removed without touching the nasty
one? Or is the mage stuck unless he wants to take the 1000+ damage.

Yes. Also, Paladins can cure magic and Druids can remove curses.

They're removed in a random order, as far as I know.

Druids can Decurse as well

Unstable afflic is fun when you see a random 1k tick off in the
distance.

Usually means "Run my way and slaughter me"

mages remove curses. Curse of Agony is a Warlock spell. The others are magic
I believe and would require a priest or other magic dispelling methods (some
potions can do 1 poison, 1 curse , 1 magic effect).
