Cannot open search page

I've been getting an error from IE recently. If I type in a URL to the
'Address' bar, I sometimes get an error message that says, "Internet Explorer
could not open the search page".
When I click 'OK' in the error box, the browser defaults to the "Yahoo"
search page showing all the results to do with the URL I typed in.
My own default search 'Home' page is set for 'Google' so I have no idea why
IE won't open perfectly valid URLs from the Address bar.

I have checked for viruses and Spyware and my machine is clear.

Can anyone offer help?
 
Yes I have the most up to date MS Anti-Spyware installed and the Norton AV
software is up to date. Both have been run and the machine is clear.
 
Error message when I type in ipconfig/release saying that Windows cannot find
the file. Same message for ipconfig/renew.

Norton AVPro 2004 installed and up to date. MS Anti-Spyware also installed
with real-time protection enabled.

Machine has been scanned recently and is clean.
