LordHowitHurtz,

first, I suppose you won't read this since you said you'll go away. On the chance you revisit and view, I appreciate your gracious thanks.
I can't help but think toracat's initial

left you offside. However, for what it's worth, while I suggested to uninstall it out, toracat finally gave you a legitimate and informed piece of advice.
That is, his input was nice and supportive in its own right, built on the description I prompted you for.

I hope you have it sorted.
Seems it can be easy to appear cold while trying to help, for free.

toracat, I think this thread can be tied off.

LordHowitHurtz,

If you read this last note, I'm willing to bet your issue is some sort of malware problem. Could be that malware is redirecting the windows tcp/ip stack through a cracker's proxy to harvest passwords and such, but ended up set to the wrong IP or the host took the site down. Download the NOD32 trial (http://www.eset.com/download) on your other PC and use a CD to install it on the one with the problem. For good measure, download and install Spybot S&D as well (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html) If there's any sort of infection, odds are that your tcp/ip stack needs to be repaired.
