Search engine \ DNS redirection problems

Folks,

Anyone else having some funnies using google, yahoo, to locate a website? E.g .. selecting cableforum after searching for it seems to go through several redirects and then points you to a random website.

My DNS servers are currently listed as :

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 85.255.112.85
85.255.112.180

This could possibly be a virus. Make sure your protection is uptodate and if in doubt cross check against an online scanner.

Re: Search engine \ DNS redirection problems

hmmm sounds like you may have some kinda spyware there those DNS servers are registered in the Ukraine !. you can try setting your DNS to Open DNS or set it to get DNS servers from VM.

or try the following two :-

4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
