Browser goes to wrong URL

When I type in http://www.re12.com in my browser, it goes
to the wrong address. The real address shows a blue and
white screen about a new website. I get thrown into
another address on another server. I have 3 other
computers in the room that go to the right address. Even
the microsoft Help line goes to the right address and has
no explanation why I can't.

I have...
dumped my temp files
deleted all cookies
dumped my history files.
reset my Lan
Downloaded Opra Browser and it still goes to the wrong
address.

And I'm out of ideas. Is there a cache somewhere on my
computer that is storing URL info that I can delete??

Any help would be nice.

thanks,
RWinters
 
RWinters,
The first thing to do is to scan your system for the possibility of
unknown\unwanted spyware or parasites that may be causing your problem(s).

--
Also check your HOSTS file, many of these Parasites will
hijack that also and add their own entries to redirect you.
