The problem I have is a redirect problem from google, i.e. when the recommended sites come up, the web pages get redirected. Additionally, avast has found a virus continuously, but doesn't seem to get rid of it. One is in C:\\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\volsnap.sys, and the other in C:\\Documents and Settings\Owner\....\log[1]. Additionally, the router seems to freeze up and/or reset from time to time on its own while the computer is running. I am unsure if it also affects the modem or not, although it doesn't seem to. Lastly, when highlighting text on a web page, before when right-clicking on said text, the option was to google the term, whereas now it states to "Search Search the web for ....", and leads to a redirect.
Thanks for any assistance you may render, and below are DDS texts:
