    i cannot access http://photobucket.com with IE6 or FF2. i can access the site from another computer on my home network so i'm pretty sure it's not my router or ISP. i've run adaware, spybot, and hijackthis, deleted temporary files, etc., and fixed everything i could think of that would cause this. I even did an ipconfig /flushdns trying to fix it.

    thanks in advance for your help.

    Ok, first question, are you able to access any other web sites? This doesn't sound like malware, by the way.

    sorry for the double post but my pc is the only one that has a static ip and i wrongly thought that if you set the router as the dns server it would pass the info from the isp...well i copied the dns server info from one of my dhcp machines and now everything is working fine.
