Also, some web pages do not open, and they are marked as unavailable.

Are u using Internet Explorer?
First: Look in Tools>>Internet Options. On the "General" tab look at the home page.
*If it is not what you want change it to http://(put your home page).
*Click 'OK".
*Turn off the browser and then start it again.
*Does it go to the home page you entered?
For FIREFOX: Use "Tools>>>Options" to change your homepage.
IF NOT: You most likely have spyware. These browser hijack objects or BHO's are all over the internet,,,and they are most often junk shopping and search sites offering all sorts of junk offers.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:
* Go to "http://www.safer-networking.org/"
* Download the latest version of the SpyBot Search & Destroy. It is 1000% safe. It is only one of very few GOOD, FREE, spyware removal programs.
* Use the program to scan the computer. DO NOT FREAK OUT IF YOU HAVE lots of spyware. Most people who rarely run any spyware scanner have tons.
*Allow the program to clean your system. Choose its DEFAULT settings and you should have no problems.
* One of the options is to immunize your system. IMMUNINIZE YOUR SYSTEM.
** Run your browser again.
** Try to reset your home page.
* If it works you spyware has gone.
* If not you have a slightly bigger problem with spyware and would require more drastic option. Dont worry post here back and will guide you.
In the meantime, after SpyBot has run you can run AdAware from Lavasoft here: Its Free : http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_aware_free.php.
It will remove what SpyBit did not find, but it does nt immunize your system like spybot.
Do not take spyware lightly. Though they do not crash your system, they steal a lot of private info from your compu.
Some anti-spyware programs: Webroot SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, Lavasoft AdAware (Free), Sunbelt's Counterspy and others.
Good luck!

Every time ?! sounds like a virus , but some times when the web page address u enter is not registered u will be taken to an auto created page that includes some link to similar sites as u entered and etc .
but if it happens EVERY TIME ! .... there is surely something wrong ... use some anti virus / internet security programs .
btw if it always happens how could u come here ? :D

Ok. Here's what you should do:
- if you have anti-spyware, run scan now.
- after running anti-spyware, run anti-virus.
- open your web browser, say internet explorer. Click on tools, internet options. Under the general tab, click on delete cookies, click on ok. Click on Delete Files, click on Ok. Click on Clear History, click on yes.
- Close internet explorer, then reopen.
If you still cannot access that webpage, check to see if your IP address and DNS servers are forced. Click on Start, settings, control panel. Click on network connections, right click on local area connections, then select properties. On the next dialogue box, look for tcp/ip, select that then click on properties. For both IP and DNS, these should both be set to obtain automatically.
Click on ok to close that dialogue box, then restart your PC.
If you are still unable to resolve the website issue, try calling your dsl tech support.

Look on the upper right side of your Browser, there you will see a tab "Tools" click on that tab and selet delete browser history. Allso you can select internet options from the same "Tools" tab now click delete files and if you want while your at it delete all cookes and passwords.
This will do it for you.

you're lacking here html code: /font -> you are able to not use font length 3 on your case. Font length 4 is 14 pt. So insert this code till now the text cloth of each and every line and after it too. occasion: circulate Homec45c55bb3b787843b7d4209f1d165d70 present day Updatesc45c55bb3b787843b7d4209f1d165d70

Sounds like a browser hijacker. I would just reformat personally. Your computer is probably riddled with spyware.

is it for a specific address only? or for all addresses? if its just for a specific address it might mean that that website redirects you to the shopping website. If it happens for all addresses, its possible that someone's tampered with your network connections.
