Question
Brian, the log seems to be never ending...
I was wondering if it would be easier for you to detect the problem if I just email the entire log as an attachment rather than sending them to you in pieces. Please let me know. Thanks.

Answer
Hi Peter

That shouldn't be necessary.  Open HJT and click to do a Scan Only.  Place a check mark in the box next to the following items, close all open browsers, then click the Fix Checked button:

O1 - Hosts: 94.247.2.216 www.google.com
O1 - Hosts: 94.247.2.216 search.yahoo.com

After fixing, close HJT and reboot.  Let me know how the computer is working now.
