Hi,

For some reason I can't search from my address bar. When I enter a query it will bring my ISP page saying it can't perform the search or something to that effect. Could anyone help me with this issue please?

Example: a search for "WhatTheTech" in the address bar brings up this page:

FYI: Recent Infection Topic & Unusual Host Files

I rang "Talk Talk" & on of their representatives kindly helped me through the problem.
If anyone has a similar issue & wants me to explain the resolution in detail, let me know.

• Open “Control Panel”
  
• Network & Sharing Centre
  
• Manage Network connections
  
• The right click on “Talk Talk Broadband” & select “Properties”
  
• Go to the “network tab” and right click on Internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
  
• Then click the “properties”. I was given a set of I.P addresses to enter in the boxes blocked out in colour, shown in fig1.1:
