Why can’t I access www.google.com?

by tomerms . Updated 16 years, 6 months ago

I am running Windows XP Home Edition SP3, AVG 9.0, Malwarebytes, SuperAnts, Adaware, IOB360. I can access any and all websites except “www.google.com”. I cannot ping google, but I can ping gmail and google.mail.com. It sounds to me like I have malware or a virus that has highjacked my browser (IE8). I have ran all the above programs in normal mode and safe mode, and they only find tracking cookies. When I type www.google into the address bar, AVG and yahoo bring up there listings of links for google, but when I click on one of those links the browser tells me that this webpage cannot be displayed. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Any help would be grateful ladies and gentlemen, Thanks,

Marlon Tomera
