OK.  I just got my internet set up at home.  Everytime I go to google or yahoo and type something in the search bar, then hit search it automatically boots me off the computer.  If I go to foxnews or something and click on one of the top stories it'll link me to it,  but no matter what I search on google or yahoo, the first time I enter the subject and push "search" the whole internet just shuts off completely?

Sounds like a virus to me.
What antivirus are you using?
Is it updated?

I think it's norton.  I tried to search for AVG or AGV since that's what we use at work, but can't google it cause it won't search.  Whenever I search, as soon as I hit the search button, it does the same thing as if I closed the browser completely.  But if I go to another website like Drudgereport I can link to all the links on there, just am unable to search.  I also downloaded the yahoo toolbar and ran its virus program.
