What is blocking my web browser from being able to access any google site?

Michael P asked:
At a certain point, something was installed on my computer that prevents my browser from being able to access any Google related web site. This includes being able to access a Google search page, Google Earth, or any site that uses Google analytics.

Is it possible that Yahoo is intentionally blocking my access to force me to use their search engine and keep me in the Yahoo network?
Any assistance would be appreciated. If it is Yahoo, I would think they are violating my rights.

Hello Michael P,
No, it is NOT Yahoo!
More then likely you have been infected with something, try these steps
Popups:
You might have been infected with some sort of tracking cookie that is causing you to get popups.
Spy ware:
You might have clicked YES to something while on a web site, or entered your login info.
Scanning your system:
Go to these link in this order:
This first on, you need to RUN from that location.
This is a DIRECT link to the exe file.
If it finds a suspicious program, remove it IF you DONT know what it is.
This one is the same thing, but you go a different way to this program.
Also, while you MIGHT have installed something that messed with your win sock, you need this to fix it:
This is a XP Win Sock Fix
Download and run this and it will want you to reboot. DO SO. REBOOT your computer or this will not work
like it is supposed
The download this and INSTALL it and update it, then run this and remove what it finds.
This is a DIRECT link to the exe file.
The you need a good anti-virus.
If you have AVG, get rid of it and use something else. Although AVG is free (so are many others) it has
it’s problems and sometimes (more times then normal) reports false positives.
If you use Norton (Symantec) You need to get rid of that also. It isn’t nothing but a resource hog and causes
problems that takes for ever to try and troubleshoot. Also, Norton has a removal tool in order for anyone to
remove it from their system (I say this is bad practice for ANYONE – the removal should have been included).

Anti-Virus
AVAST Anti Virus is FREE and you can also pay for it.

Check and make sure your firewall is allowing you to connect to the google content you wish to see. It’s an idea anyway.

could be spyware or adware
then it can be your virus software like norton or macafee
check your pc with some virus software like trend or tune up and get rid of the ones you have
nothing but problems
they stop websites opening or close them, effect audio etc
and some firewalls

My friend has Choice One internet with a Netgear router and he cannot access ANY google site either (not even YouTube) . He has a MacBook and two Windows computers and not one can get on a Google site. If you have Choice One- then its probably them doing something. If you have a Netgear router with the internal antennas then it might be that. It could be something totally different, too. i doubt its spyware. I am trying to resolve this problem. And yes, his cannot access google earth, analytics, etc- the whole shabang.

it’s the POP_UP blocker thats blocking it! disable the pop-up blocker its on top of your internet browser. better yet if you just uninstall the yahoo or google toolbars….
