I can type in the google ip address and get there, works
fine. Won't work from www.google.com or the google toolbar
that I added to Internet Explorer.

Any ideas?
 
Qhosts virus/trojan, ALERT!.

It may be a HOSTS file problem.
Look also for a file named HOSTS (no extension, could be hidden) rename it
OLDHOSTS.

If you did not create that file it may be because you are using a web
accelerator program or that you have been hacked by a parasite.
