Sounds like a DNS hijack which also affects the Hosts file.
Let's flush your DNS cache and restore MS's original Hosts file.
Copy and paste these lines in Note pad.
@Echo on
pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
attrib -h -s -r hosts
echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
attrib +r +h +s hosts
popd
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset all
netsh int ip reset all
shutdown -r -t 1
del %0
Save as flush.bat to your desktop. Right click on the .bat to run as Administrator. Your computer will reboot itself.
Now, run a "complete" scan with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
