per the comments (allowed for tech stuff!), you may want to run a rootkit scan, if the hosts file is ok, antivirus/spyware checks out, etc. - b. Jun 25, 14:29 11
- Oh yeah, cookies/cache were first on the list. - Qale Jun 25, 14:32 10
  - I figured, but you never know. :) - no idea about more than once computer, unless they're all infected - have you tried contacting the ISP? -- nm - b. Jun 25, 14:35 9
    - I haven't contacted them yet. Searching for the problem in that direction gained me 5 results. All were message boards with questions, no answers. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 14:38 7
      - this thread mentions it happening on multiple systems - scroll to almost the bottom for stevexxxx's post. easy thing to try, anyway. nm but: -- (link) - b. Jun 25, 14:42 6
        
        oo, and this mentions checking if dhcp is enabled. nm but: -- (link) - b. Jun 25, 14:45 5
        
        oh, sorry, I meant to say check from where it starts mentioning dhcp and dns settings. Simoxxx's post. -- nm - b. Jun 25, 15:11
        
        It's only Google, so dhcp shouldn't be the problem. That would kill the internet completely from what I'm understanding. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 14:52 3
        
        Google's punishing you after seeing your comments about the Nexus. -- nm - spamlet Jun 25, 14:59 2
        
        And I kept the Nexus! -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 15:02
        
        And giving their movie a boring old C. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 15:01
    - once? one! -- nm - b. Jun 25, 14:36
I thought about the hosts file. It seems too coincidental to be affecting every computer. And include not just search, but every G product. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 14:28
