Hey everyone. Running into an issue that started a couple days ago...

Used to me that when I would type something the the address bar on Safari (5.0.4) like Yahoo and hit enter, I would get directed to www.yahoo.com automatically.

Well, over the past couple of days that no longer happens. Now I just get redirected to a Roadrunner search for Time Warner?

I have tried resetting Safari with no change. Any ideas?

with the help of third party software "1 password",you can get rid of all these problems...

its quite convenient...
 
^ Yea thats not the answer I'm looking for.

I'm thinking that maybe it has something to do with my DNS settings? When I go into System Prefs > Network > Advanced > DNS Tab... my DNS server shows the default 192.168.1.1. Does this need to be set to my ISP's DNS? If so, how do I find that?
