Hi I hope you can help.
Symptoms include hosts file not working a it should. Entries I put in there to try to get to www.safer-networking.org and microsoft update sites do not work (get page not found)
In fact I had to do a whois and type the actual IP address in to get to this site. Many (well all the good ones) spyware removing sites and tools pages return page not found unless i type in the IP. Antivirus programs I downloaded (AVG and the like) cannot update and or activation codes wont work.
Spybot S&D which I have used for years now starts as a service when opened and does nothing. I finagled downloading latest version and up dates and reinstalled it ... same thing just runs as a service ... no windows open.
OK ... probably more than you want to hear ... here is the HJT Log
