I *had* QHost, and I can safely say that it's a force that should be reckoned with. I couldn't open ANY search pages (it rerouted me to fucked up pages). So, I hit up Symantec's site and downloaded the fix for it. What do you know..."QHost is not detected on your computer." What the hell? I KNOW I had it, but nothing I did fixed it. I even uninstalled and re-installed Internet Explorer before I knew what it was and that didn't help. I ran Norton Anti-Virus, Symantec Anti-Virus, Ad-Aware, SpyBlaster, installed every single Microsoft Update for Windows XP ever made, and even tried System Restore. Guess what?
None of it worked. I ended up formatting yesterday morning. I now have all of the aformentioned installed again with Symantec Anti-Virus running in the system tray. I pray that I don't get it again, because right now there's literally no way to fix it.
