Cool!. I c nothing else that could upset your sys in those startup entries. The icon... dunno, it may just be your ISP's way of showing you a broken search. The icon came with your ISP's software.If you wish to fool around a bit to check no unwanted redirection is occurring try tracing a connection to a local website, one in your town.
Go Start, run, type cmd -press Enter. Type in:
tracert www.google.com -press Enter. You'll get a list of providers which the connection goes thru. Now to google it would have several junctions to go by..... hence try a local website. [don't include the http:// bit]
Anyway, if you are happy, hit the solved button.
Cheers.

They look fine... on the way out the pings went quite directly to the target sites via various carriers, and that is fine. Google got bounced about a bit on the way back to you, but no problem there -it's how the web works, packets find the more direct and non-loaded path. You're fine.
Cheers.
