Background, Windows XP SP3, IE 8.0, all checks for virus, malware, spyware & etc. Clients PC is on a peer to peer network, no domain and no server. You can type in any address in the address bar with only 2 exceptions. If you try to type in google.com or bing.com it comes up with the error: http 403 forbidden. If you are in MSN or Yahoo and type in their search bar same results.

I have checked content advisor, security settings, reset, and restore advance settings and made sure all user settings were deleted to default. Still the same. Is this one of those wipe out and star over problems?
