      There you go!  ;D

      And I also can see your problem. Your hosts file has been hijacked, as I suspected, which would indicate a malware infection of some sort.

      First, follow the instructions here:
      http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,46313.0.html

      Then start a new topic and post the logs in this area:
      http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/board,53.0.html

      One of the malware guys will help you clean that up.  :)
