Do a Find Files on your system for a file called Hosts (no extension). Rename it to Hosts.old, reboot and see if that fixes your problem. If so....
This may be caused by spyware/malware that's gotten installed on your system. Use Ad-Aware and/or Spybot Search & Destroy to remove it.
Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html Good sites on how to install and use Spybot - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/tutorial/index.html http://tomcoyote.com/SPYBOT/index1.php
Also download a winsock repair tool, to have just in case cleaning up anything found breaks it -

Winsock2 Fix- Win98, ME http://www.bu.edu/pcsc/internetaccess/winsock2fix.html

If no joy, in IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Advanced tab, Browsing section, uncheck "Enable third-party browser extensions", click Apply, click Okay, reboot. If that solves your problem, then more troubleshooting is needed to find out exactly which program, or Browser Helper Object (BHO) is causing this problem. You don't want to leave it at that, as some BHOs are useful or necessary - like Adobe Acrobat for reading .pdf files or an essential component of Norton AV. Get BHODemon - http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm - read all about BHOs. Disable all items, and then gradually replace one or two at a time to narrow down the culprit.
Or if you have IE 6 SP-2 you can do this within the browser: How to manage Internet Explorer add-ons in Windows XP Service Pack 2 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;883256
If all the above fails, then the problem could be something new that the spyware cleaners above don't have in their databases yet. In that case.... HijackThis direct download: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip Tutorial on how to use HijackThis: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/htlogtutorial.html Then post it's output log to the forum here for analysis and feedback by the parasite experts: http://www.spywareinfo.com/forums/ Or the other HijackThis Logs forums listed here: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/forums.html
