Used to be able to get on some favorite sites, the last couple of days could not access them. Blank screen with "Done" on bottom left corner. After about 30 tries it would load correctly, but took extremely long (i.e. 5 - 10 minutes) to complete load.

I ran Hijack This and these are the results: Could someone please help me fix this mess!!

hi, nitehealer, i see the hosts file entry is gone, but whatever put it there did not show up. Are you still having problems with sites not loading at usual speeds? All sites, or are only some affected? And is IE your only browser?

Everything seems to be loading great now!!! I really appreciate the help!!!

Cool, you could unload a couple of those browser helpers... I do not know how you like to surf, or operate with IE, but my personal feelings are, if I want google i open a google window, i don't want a toolbar taking up space; same with yahoo. It is up to you, but you can remove them simply by rclick options on the toolbars themselves, or you can use hijackthis to fix them : the R3, any O2 entries you don't want, and the O3's also. Your choice. If you like assistance with it, say so..
Anyway, glad I could help. Cheers.
