Hi Guys!

For whatever reason i am no longer able to type in the address bar: eg. www.ebay and then hit enter/return to go to ebay's or any other site for that matter.
 It defaults to:
 http://securedns.comodo.com/main?InterceptSource=0&ClientLocation=xx&ParticipantID=xd34nu3b7tg9r2jcd9fb8jjdzztv2dxl&FailureMode=1&SearchQuery=&FailedURI=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay%2F&AddInType=4&Version=2.1.1-1.56base&Referer=&Implementation=0

can anyone help?

Try changing your DNS settings to something like Open DNS and see if that helps.

From Control Panel go to Network and sharing centre(Vista/7)/Network connections(xp) then Change adapter settings(vista/7) and right click on your Local Area Connection and select properties.
Now double left click on Internet Protocol Version 4 and in the box "Use the following DNS server addresses" put 208.67.222.222 in the Prefered and 208.67.220.220 in the Alternate, OK, OK to save settings.

Or you could try re-checking the "Obtain DNS server address automatically" box.

Just realised you also didn`t put in the .com or whatever it may be, don`t forget the .xx bit.
