It sounds like you need to clean up your system.

I would run the following utilities:

1. Download Microsofts antispyware utility (free at microsoft.com). Run that.
2. I would also run Spybot 1.4 (free at download.com)
3. Run a full antivirus scan. If youy can get to it, go to housecall.trendmicro.com and do a full online scan. If you can't get to that site and if you don't have antivirus software, you can get AVG antivirus for free from download.com.

Run all of these utilities and see if the issue clears up...if not, download Hijack This (also from download.com) and post the log for me to see.
Good luck,
Dave

Thanks for the help, but I had no luck as I'm still getting kicked out to desk top. Here are the results you requested:

Most of it looks fine...however, I did notice the following:

O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\msjava.dll (file missing)

Could the web sites that are not loading Java based? Try reinstalling JAVA (1st uninstall it).

Also, I'm not sure about:
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{157A5EEC-8B2D-4D5A-A0A3-88A08824A751}: NameServer = 12.102.244.4 204.127.129.4

I fix a lot of computers and this does not look familiar. After googling it I found this:

Unless you know Columbia Insurance Group or CenturyTel Internet Holdings, these can go too:
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\Parameters: Domain = colinsgrp.com
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{B6E12D37-410C-43E9-9F77-5DC51470DCB9}: NameServer = 64.91.3.46 209.142.136.85

These are similar entries on your HJT log.

I believe it was a Java problem.

Thanks for your help. All things seem to be normal again.

My pleasure
