When I connect to the Internet various IP Addresses are added to my
routing table. Most do not resolve to any known domain. Just returns
that address can not be found.. Two pointed to websites that
advertise marketing information gathering for websites.
Actually, this happens after opening a browser. The LAN is always
connected to the Internet.
I have looked at more than one system and it does not happen on all.

If I type ROUTE PRINT before using the browser, I see a normal
output. After opening up the browser some period of time passes and
then the Routing Table has additional routes added to it.
These routes are various Internet IP Addresses unlike the local
nonroutable address of the computer.
They are listed as an address followed by a mask of 255.255.255.255
with the correct default gateway for my LAN and a metric of 1.

If I flush all gateway related items and ADD back in the Internet
route (0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 gateway address) then let the computer sit
for awhile, some new address is added in the same manner as before.

Have tried numerous anti spyware scans and virii scans but all come up
clean and the problem persists. Also, sometimes after closing the
browser the computer appears to almost lock up.
The pointer moves if the mouse is moved but can not click on
anything. Keyboard does not work.

After a wait of 60-120 seconds the system seems normal again.
