I haven't gotten any responses yet, so I investigated further. I found my dns in the router was changed from auto get from ISP to 1 spacific dns #. I changed it back to get auto & changed my router log in password. Now I can get my AV updates ok, but AVG, F-prot, Web root, spybot search & destroy, haven't found any viruses (other than cookies ) on my machine. Am I clean now? I'm concerned because last week someone hacked my WOW account & I don't know if it was the dns redirect that did it, or I have a deeper virus the programs can't find. Thanks for any help.
I don't know how to link my previous post, but it was on the 28th of april.
