Redirect from MSN.com to strange oingo.com search page

I and several other people in my company can no longer MSN.com and some
related websites. We are using IE6, IE7 on several different PCs and
even Safari on Mac.

Whenever we type in www.msn.com (spelled correctly), we are redirected
to a strange search page at:
http://apps5.oingo.com/apps/domainpark/domainpark.cgi?client=TUCO3114&s=msn.com

We've tried deleting cache, cookies, etc. but no luck. How do we get
this off our systems? Thanks!

Update: Can't access most microsoft software download, update, etc.
pages now either, since they seem to be located at
http://g.msn.com/..... Everyother page we try to access with msn.com
in the URL is "not found." :(
 
I don't know the answer but don't use Beta 7. You won't be able to use IE any
more and the windows explorer search function won't work until you reinstall
some .dll files that the beta release erases. Not only that, but Microsoft
won't help you until you give them all kinds of information that is not
pertinent to the problem. Opera and Firefox are better anyway and now they
are both free!

Sounds like a malware infection.

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
