Post #1
The symptom is that a url that worked yesterday results in a page not found.

URL is available from other computers on the same network.

Installed spybot and updated. Spybot runs very very slowly.

Attached is the hijack this log. I appreciate any assistance in resolving these issues.

Hello Ydnar and Welcome TomCoyote,

You may want to print out these instructions for reference, since you will have to restart your computer during the fix.

Please download FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/lonny/Fixwareout.exe

Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, then make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish. The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

At the end of the fix, you may need to restart your computer again.

Scan with HijackThis. Place a check against each of the following:
O1 - Hosts: localhost 127.0.0.1
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {08BEC6AA-49FC-4379-3587-4B21E286C19E} - (no file)
O9 - Extra button: Scan and protect your PC - {BF69DF00-4734-477F-8257-27CD04F88779} - C:\Program Files\UnSpyPC\UnSpyPC.exe (file missing) (HKCU)
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Scan and protect your PC - {BF69DF00-4734-477F-8257-27CD04F88779} - C:\Program Files\UnSpyPC\UnSpyPC.exe (file missing) (HKCU)
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{50689620-3C85-4718-8B85-FC49A7D32E34}: NameServer = 85.255.114.59,85.255.112.211
Close all windows or browsers except for Hijackthis. Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Finally, please post a fresh HijackThis log, along with the contents of the logfile C:\fixwareout\report.txt
