hello,
interesting forum, hopefully you guys can help me, i donīt know what else to do. i think my other computer has got some spyware or virus or something.
everytime i connect to a website, e.g. google.com, my browsers (both IE and Firefox!) are displaying information for a company called "Snitsig".
It seems to be a webdesign company.
But I cannot connect to any other websites. Either there is an error message coming up "cannot display website" (but NOT the normal IE or Firefox error messages).
And I'm getting the same fake US IP all the time as well, no matter what I do: 74.86.22.02
(I'm from the UK and get usually UK IPs)
my other computer is working fine with exactly the same internet connection !
if i connect to the internet with the faulty computer, the connection seems to work, but its not displaying any websites...
Now what I've done so far, but hasn't helped:
-disconnected modem
-renew IP with ipconfig / LAN settings
-tried to use this computer with someone elses network (still exactly same IP / messages)
-tried latest versions of AVG spyware, AVG virus, Adaware, nothing, (well AVG found some virus / trojaner, which has been deleted, but it's still not working.)
-deleted all cookies
-error is coming up for both wireless or LAN connection
has anyone got an idea what i can do or what the problem is ?
thanks.
