I have never needed to post in a tech support forum before, but I have a problem that is beyond my skill to fix. My computer has recently started rebooting on its own. It did this once before, presumably from overheating, so I cleaned the dust out of the heat sync and and it stopped. In addition to rebooting, I am no longer able to access google or yahoo. I get this: http://ehttp.cc/?google.com whenever I type in google. I use system mechanic to disable certain start-up programs, and found "addclass" as a start-up program. Disabling it did not fix the google problem. Here is my hijackthis log:

I appreciate any help you can give me. I tried "fixing" all entries marked (obfuscated), but a quick reboot later they came right back. I'm not sure where the source of the problem is. Thanks in advance for the advice.
