Address bar open command

When I use the open command to navigate to a site, ie,
www.something.com, the response I get is
http://garbage=www.something.com and an error saying the
site cannot be found. How do I get rid of the garbage so
the open command sends me to the site I typed?

It seems that an unfriendly site has poisoned my browser.
I have tried to remove and reinstall IE, and turned off
the auto complete.
