    Hello, www.facebook.com is redirecting for me to a Swedish site with the title "Lundbladh" ... any ideas? Everything else seems to be working fine.

    Run this >>> Download HostsXpert and then follow the below steps.
    • Unzip HostsXpert.zip
    • It will create a folder named HostsXpert in whatever folder you extract it to.
    • Run HostsXpert.exe by double clicking on it.
    • Click the Make Writeable? button. (if you only see a Make Read-Only selection, it is already writeable so skip this button).
    • Click Restore Microsoft's Hosts File and then click OK.
    • Click the X to exit the program
    If that does not help then continue with the below

    The problem resolved itself after a restart; neither Avast nor Malwarebytes picked anything up. I ran your option just in case; nothing changed. Thanks for the help though! Everything is working fine now.

    Are you using a Linksys router by any chance?
