With the kids off school, it pays to change not only your WiFi password, but also renew the Router firmware password.
Do the Router first, change it from the default one... then renew your WiFi password.

Sometimes turning you router off then back on again will give you a new IP address - hopefully one that Spamhaus don't have in their system.. :D That does depend rather on the 'rules' that your ISP provider apply to that. Some automatically give you a new IP address every time the router restarts, some only after a delay.
You can also get a new IP address in Windows by doing the following..
Click Start, type run then cmd
Type ipconfig /release at the prompt window,, Enter
Type ipconfig /renew at the prompt window, Enter
The DHCP server will assign a new IP address for your computer.

Nick,
Have you actually tracked down & destroyed whatever program hacked your system? If not your problems will continue!!
The free malwarebytes program is a good place to start..

Many UM members, if not all, will be hoping that 5 hour break happens again if the Swans win today. :lol:
