Thank you Little Eagle. So far today and yesterday, things have been working fine (go figure!) I ran hijack as you suggested. I did one scan before doing any fixing, shown below (note that the R1 with proxy 127.0.0.1 was no longer listed... perhaps some of my other changes were starting to hold? I had also since run a Spyware Dr scan and had clearned a few items it found. Also note that there were several other R1's added since my previous scan).

So far, everything has been running fine (first time in over a month)... like I said, go figure! Can you tell me what you suspect was going on so I can watch for it? Regardless, THANK YOU for your assistance. If I run into problems again, should I post back to this or do another new post? I figure if it is going to give me trouble it should be in the next time or two that I try to access the internet... that has been the pattern. Thanks!
Greg
