Default Cannot open government of Canada web sites


For the past few months I have been unable to access any government of Canada web sites (gc.ca). I can open every other site that I have tried including all provincial government sites. I have found a temporary fix by using Instant Unblock but this is a real pain. I read where someone had the same problem and they used HijackThis to correct the problem. I tried the program and found 4 of the items listed starting with "17". I fixed these but the problem continues. I have attached the latest HijackThis log. Hopefully someone can help.

Hi Donald,

The log file is not attached, Once you attach your log file it will be displayed below your message (like your first post).

The entry at 017 is still present

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{A1F46945-1C48-4C84-AE81-A02E82F6A96E}:NameServer = 85....

And that is the root cause of your problem. Please remove this entry.

Also if that entry is re-appearing again after reboot.
Install a good anti-spyware ewido seems to fix this malware you can download a full working trial version at ewido - anti-spyware and anti-malware solutions

I did what you suggested...
-I removed/fixed line item 17 using HijackThis. After removing line item 17, I could not access any site on the internet even Google.
-I ran... Spybot, Ad-Aware, SUPERAntiSpyware, Spysweeper, AVG Spy Sweeper and the program you suggested.
-I shut down my computer and restarted, line item 17 was back and I could not access any gc.ca sites. But I could now access all other internet sites.
Please help. Donald
