Site blocked and updates won't run

[emaleroland]

When I try to reach malwarebytes.org I get 'Web server is OK.' (no quotes) I get this with IE and FF.

I downloaded from CNET.

Current db: 3510

When I run an update, it fails: 732 (0,0)

I have followed the suggestion for updating common controls.

I have run the registry fix suggestion (offline)

I could also not reach superantispyware.com. Downloaded it from CNET.

Cannot get an update for it either.

No proxy set.

No group policy set.

No hosts file blocks.

I did run Rootkit Revealer from Sysinternals (MSFT) and got lots of messages but it pointed mostly to TCP/IP errors.

Kaspersky online scan is down.

I ran Bitdefender online scan. Found nothing.

Scan with SAS found nothing but cookies.

MB did find one infection but issue remains.

The apps run, but they don't update and I can't reach the sites. All other sites I've tried work.

Symantec SEP is installed but disabled and not in memory.

Puzzled. Any/all help appreciated.

I may have resolved my issue. DNS had been modified, apparently from the infection that was removed. It redirected primary and secondary which would explain the latency, why I could't reach your site or get updates and why I couldn't find any infections locally.

To help any that may read this, these are the offending IPs.

yes that could do it...

Now that you can get connected make sure you update your MBAM and run a quick scan to ensure you are clean, current db at this moment is now 3811.
