Can't connect to fastclick, casale, others

This one has me baffled, and I'm wondering what might be behind it. I can't reach the following advertising sites in either IE or Netscape:

fastclick.com
casalemedia.com
azoogleads.com

I have uninstalled and reinstalled my firewall, uninstalled and reinstalled my av (Norton), did a spyware scan with Spy Sweeper, and I still can't reach these sites. Does anyone have any ideas?

Welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com], seafoam.

Have you been hit by any spyware in the past? Are there any stray entries in your "hosts" file that are left over from a spyware program? Are any sites in the "banned" list for your firewall?

Hi, thanks for your response. AdAware and SpySweeper have found spyware on my computer, yes. Now it has been cleaned off, but I still can't reach anything.

I went to my hosts file, and saw mention of fastclick.com, but none of casalemedia.com, so I don't think that something in there is the problem.

I uninstalled my ZoneAlarm firewall and replaced it with another one. So far, that has not helped.
