 | [IL] Mediacom redirector came back and I can't remove it After not seeing it for months the Mediacom redirect service came back. When I type in a search in the address bar, it comes up with garbage suggestions. It is not listed in my search options, I have flushed the DNS, I have opted out, I have connected directly to the cable modem and opted out. Nothing I can do seems to get rid of it. Has anyone had any success in permanently removing this? |

to BAINCH How can I reply to you? You need to register here on dslreports.com by clicking on this link »/join/new.
Registration is free and you do not get spam email. You must register to send PMs (private message) which is how BAINCH sometimes deals with issues involving sensitive information or account information. |

 | I am already registered but don't see how i could contact BAINCH. Thanks for your assistance. Paula |

 | Once you login you can just click on his user name and send a message. |
|
 | I've clicked on his user name but it only said I could instant message him; his e-mail address is private. |

 beachintechThere's sand in my tool bagPremium join:2008-01-06 kudos:5 | reply to BAINCH I have to opt out every few months. I finally gave up and switched the whole home network to another DNS service. Much better. -- Tech at the Beach. |

 | reply to PMS1228 You are not logged in, until you login you will not be able to send a PM. Go to the top of the page and login. |

 | I have been using opendns for a long time now and do not see DNS issues. Not that mediacom has DNS issues, but there were a few times when I did. I switched my router over to opendns and forgotten about it. |
