Recently my computer when opening Google.co.uk comes up with Cpanel.net "There is no website configured at this address" page. Now also happening with altavista.com Any suggestions?

Hi Paul, hello everyone,is a previous post in which I responded to but have yet to see the results.
Best Regards,
Mesich

Hi Mesich!
Thank you for the link. Without the benefit of the previous post, I was halfway through typing up the answer to 'Search and Destroy' any Spyware. You had already given the right directions in the original post about the same topic!

Thanks, but unfortunately this hasn't solved the problem. I downloaded the fix from Symantec and it did not find the Trojan. Anyone suggest an alternative?
Log file below

Trojan.Qhosts has not been found on your computer.

I have found a further message at

Thanks all.
