This is interesting... I haven't had known crashing kind of problems you have had, no ~known~ infection, but I always have several entries in my DNS cache (which I understand to be contacts from my computer to the internet) that are ~not~ places I have been to and have very insidious names. I can flush my DNS cache, but all these re-appear immediately without ~me~ doing anything. Note below that I flushed the cache and then immediately displayed again. I did nothing else, and refreshed no pages in between.
