    Hello all, i have a problem that does not seem to be adware/spyware/ or virus:eek: . This is why i posted this tread here.

    Computer Stats:
    -Windows XP Home
    -Maxthon Browser (problem appears in both browsers)
    -IE Broswer (problem appears in both browsers)
    -All IE settings (Default)
    -Maxthon Settings (Default) Except that i took off all the search engines.
    -Using ADSL
    -Using Router

    The problem is:

    If I'm at my other computer and mistype a url, Ggggooggglleee.com for example, I get a "The requested URL could not be retrieved" page.

    What a suprise I hear you say!

    However, when I'm at home, if I type the same url, my brower redirects me to searchportal.information.com. This happens to all mistyped urls.

    I've tried Adaware, Spybot, HijackThis, CCleaner, Windows Defender, CWShredder, Panda, Trend Micro, Avast anti-virus, and AVG; everything came out clean.

    Any help GREATLY appreciated!:)
