[QUOTE="hjlbx, post: 397488"] Clean install OS is always best solution when infected or even if only suspect infection - in my opinion - if you do not mind the hassle. You have to be prepared though - what if you perform clean install and your IP issue does not go away ?? :confused: It is ultimately your decision... but I suggest you get advice from malware removal expert - as it could be something completely simple and harmless - or - it can be an infection of some sort. That your ISP gateway is black-listed - even by only SpamHaus - as part of a botnet is a very serious issue. However, it may have absolutely nothing to do with your issue and be just a coincidence. Router infections are fairly common. Plus, you install a lot of softs - so it can be the result of a wide range of things... Better check it out with Argus or Twin Headed Eagle... [/QUOTE]
