I am wondering if you can help me? I am trying to get to any anti-virus software pages (download.com, mcafee.com, and other anti-virus software pages) I can not get to any of them from my computer. Does this sound like a particular virus to you? All other internet pages work fine(espn, yahoo, hotmail, etc.)thank you.

I had a similar virus or malicious addware that did that very thing to my computer. After I finally downloaded the programs with another computer it would not let me install them. I went into safe mode and installed them from there.
