Problems after MSN Messenger virus

[Brad]

Hello, I was hit with a virus through MSN messenger about a month ago and
ever since my IT guy was able to get rid of the bug, I can't visit ebay.com
or amazon.com. The virus sent to me by my friend's infested computer was
something like "click this link to see what you would look like 50 years from
now" or something like that. But ever since then, I can't visit these 2
sites. Other people can go to these sites so I know IT hasn't locked those
sites out from us. This affects both IE and Firefox. Any ideas of how I can
fix this? Thanks.
