Alright I'm so confused it's amazing. Well I connect to the net today, and notice a few websites are looking like they are on crack. Even WHT look's messed up at times with the background colors not loading, some mis-arranged stuff. Then when I logged into C-Panel for the second time and see Last login from: proxy.ia2.marketscore.com. Now, last I knew MarketScore was not my ISP, nor am was I on a proxy as of yesterday, and I didn't know of any changes that were being made to my ISP. So does anyone have a clue as to what is wrong, or am I crack and just not know it?

;) it could have been a proxy on your isp? , or maybe if its a reseller account, it could have been your dedicated server owners hostname, checking on it, otherwise, i'm lost..

You should first check in "close circles" such as relatives and people living with you... ;)

marketscore is that program that makes your internet go faster.

yeah I checked out marketscore.com. Seems my parents or someone installed it on my computer. Downloaded Ad-Aware and it found the registry files, and then I found that it also changed some of my IE Settings. All better now, or hopefully.
