Internet Explorer/ Google Redirecting, Firefox Wont Work at All … Any Ideas?

okayy, this might be a bit of a odd question, and wasn’t sure whether to put this in here, or the virus forums, but i shall elaborate anyway.

we have a laptop running vista home premium (slow as hell), that had a couple of bugs a while back, but i believe these have been removed now. for some reason, when you search in google, or sometimes other websites, it redirects me to info.co.uk which im unsure if its a bogus website or not. also, mozilla firefox refuses to work, it says ‘firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete’ on whatever website you care to enter.

Not sure what other info to attach to this. only thing i can think of, is that our router is set to use openDNS as its default DNS server, however, all other pcs/laptops on vista work fine with IE or firefox, the laptop has also been tested at work, on a different wireless connection, so im pretty sure that is not the cause, but hey, what do i know!

Cheers, MCTW
