hijack

In IE9 when I search for anything my ISP hijacks google search and I get this result. IE9 search ISP hijacked

To add complication to this I've already changed the default DNS servers (OpenDNS) months ago. This only happens in IE9; even after machine reboots and cache flushing. ipconfig info

I even have my router (dd-wrt) intercepting all requests for DNS and I am still getting this result.

I have all extensions disabled and there are no toolbars. This is IE9 from M$. This is not malware; it happens all machines with IE installed (even IE7/8).
