b!

I'm not sure if I've found the solution, but thank you for helping me.

It can't be the router/modem. My 3DS and the tablets are unaffected.

It can't be dhcp or dns since everything else is working correctly.

So I rethought the problem. It's affecting two computers. What's the common link between those two computers?

Both mom and I use swagbucks. I bet a simple misclick or even a malicious vagrant getting through in an offer for swagbucks ended up gaining us malware.

What else is common between those two computers?

Both mom and I use Microsoft Security Essentials.

Changing that up, and running Avast scans, I've removed two malicious files. Mom's currently only seen one. So we'll see if that is the problem.

Thanks again!
