Help, Please Help!

Please help!

I am having major browser problems. I know this may be a little offtopic for this board, but i had no idea where else to go. For some reason, I am unable to access my yahoo mail account from my home PC. I can access literally every other site and I can access everything else my yahoo account has to offer(ie-calender, address book, my profile, everything else). For some reason when I fill out the name and password for as usual and then click the sign in button, as usual, I get the cannot find server page as you all probably have seen:

This page cannot be displayed

It isnt the yahoo servers, I have been in contact with support and this problem has been ongoing for days. Ive tried clearing the cache, increasing cache size, deleting files, cookies and changing the internet properties every which way. I've done literally every problem solving stepbystep from yahoo, dell, microsoft, ie, even my isp. Ive tried using a different browser(netscape). I dont know why it doesn't work and I know that my account is fine because I can access my Yahoo!Mail from work and from my remote connection at home. Is there any solution out there or am I just out of luck? Please any and all responses would be greatly appreciated.

Google is always a good answer. If a blank is drawn, try looking for malware.

Use these to remove Malware (Spyware and Adware).

1) SpyBot Search and Destroy
After installing SpyBot Search & Destroy, first press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.
Next, close all Internet Explorer windows, hit 'Check for Problems', and have SpyBot remove all it finds.

2) Get Ad-Aware
After installing Ad-Aware, and before running the program, first press “check for updates now".
Click "Connect" and install all updated components available. Click 'Finish'.
Press "Scan Now", then 'next', and let Ad-Aware scan your drives.
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys. Click 'Next' again.
Check all found items, and click 'next' once more.
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.



Always reboot the computer between each program - both of these may find things that they need to have a reboot of the machine to clear - please reboot and let them finish .

Failing those solving your problems a post of a hijackthis log for the experts to advise.

Your log looks clean so that is not the problem.

Try finding your hosts file and renaming it and then retry

Do a search of your computer for a file called hosts (no extention) - (also check in hidden and system folders)

In my machine (winXP home) is is at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc

Rename to say hosts.old

reboot and try again.
