There is a possibility your computer is infected with the recent "Conficker" virus. Supposedly, a symptom of this virus is "web sites related to antivirus software or the Windows Update service becoming inaccessible." Here is a site to help remove the Conficker virus: cantalktech.com/2009/01/21/how-to-remove-downadup-conficker-virus/ |

Like I said, be more specific. What exactly is happening?
Also, when you try to open your hard drive (like if you go to My Computer and double-click C:) does anything weird happen? If it won't load, that means your autorun is infected, and you'll have to fix that manually, since virus scanners generally won't do that. I can tell you how to do that if it is.
Anyway, I really like Avast, so I would suggest downloading it. If a virus is blocking you from downloading anti-virus software, you shouldn't just go looking for different programs. We can help you find away around the virus blocking it, but you have to tell us exactly what is happening. It's impossible to help someone if you don't know exactly what is happening.
