Everytime I start a new browser it loads up with the
Cannot Find Server - This page could not be displayed
page. When I hit refresh or type in a url it works
perfectly. The problem isn't my homepage setting, ive
checked it several times. I think it may be a registry
error. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

First eliminate any scumware.
See
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware, Parasites, Toolbars and Search Engines
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
CWShredder is also available here:

**Post your HijackThis log to
http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ or the Spyware forum at
http://forum.aumha.org/ for expert analysis, not here.**
Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder
may be found on this page:
http://aumha.org/a/parasite.htm.
If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.

Elliot,
"Cannot Find Server" is usually Winsock related
See: "Repairing your Winsock Connection"
