Post subject: search results getting blank page Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>help_and_support (more info?)
In the last two days suddenly i can not use google search I can search from
the address bar but when i get to google none of the buttons work. selecting
next page or starting a new search all I get is a page that only shows the
google logo and none of the search results. Hitting refresh doesn't do
anything.

Does the same occur when using a different browser?
Sounds like malware...run the usual assortment of malware cleaners (adaware,
spybot) and your antivirus. Check your HOSTS file to make sure nothing has
been added to it, redirecting google to another bogus site

Well it doesn't happen with Yahoo. I ran spybot and didn't find anything. I
use cheap dial up, so maybe its related.
