Hi Phil,

This issue is complex and depends on many issues. I would start here:

Ad-Aware

Spybot

CWShredder (Line 313)

Hijack This

Free Online Virus Scan

If the behavior does not change:

For most users this works:

Lan Settings - Proxy Server - Disable (Line 253)

Manual: IE/Tools/Internet Options/Connections/Lan Settings. Uncheck Use a
proxy server.....

Rename your hosts file: Go to: Windows\System32\DRIVERS\etc.
