parryhandy Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Got home last night and opened a browser up in firefox and ie and instead of going to my homepage google, it went to (nod32.com) eset .com. I changed my DNS server settings and the problem seemed to go away. Just changed them back again today and all seems well again. Anybody know whats going on here ? Have I been hijacked or is this a problem with the server getting the address wrong ? (does this happen?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Do you use Nod32 as your virus checker by any chance? What DNS were you using? Believe I had some such issue with OpenDNS when I was using it many moons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parryhandy Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 Nope I use avast. DNS 1. 202.69.137.137 2. 202.69.137.138 Was using these settings and switched to open DNS which cured it. Now switched back again and everything is back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Those are Maxnet servers from quick check and they seem to have been having major issues of late so probably just a fluk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogers Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Can be corrected with DNS flush without needing to change DNS servers. http://www.tech-faq.com/flush-dns.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
