I made the mistake of installing their DNS Updater software. I uninstalled it and now I can't get rid of it hijacking my browser error traffic. I don't click on ads anyway but it bugs the hell out of me when their logo pops up with ads below it.

Doe anyone know how to rid this of my Vista PC? I looked at the hosts file and it wasn't changed.

Got no clue how to fix it, but thanks for posting the warning.

I figured it out. When I installed the software it changed my name servers for my network card. Now I'm back to getting my ISP's PPC ads. :)
