When I type an address that doesn't exist in web-browser "aidjaoihahg" and press enter I come to my Internet Providers IIS server. It is an IIS 8 default website with IIS8 logo etc. "aidjaoihahg.universal.se" Say WHAT?

looking at "ping aidjaoihahg" shows ip: xx.xx.xx.xx and "tracert xx.xx.xx.xx" shows up with a server http://dilbert.uvtc.net The uvtc.net is a shortform of my internet provider Universal Telecom.

I have checked ipconfig /all and computer, picks up this entries:

    DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : universal.se
    Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : universal.se

From reading, these entries are supposed to apply to unqualified names, but Windows DNS is applying them to all DNS lookups and triggering extra DNS lookups on bogus addresses. I think.

I am not setting that DNS suffix and search list anywhere. And would think it is picked up from my internet provider? I have tried to pull out the DNS Suffix Search List from group policies. Not sure this is applied correctly.

Local Group Policy Editor->Computer->Administration Templates->Network->DNS Client->DNS Suffix search list->Disabled. 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters show SearchList empty

How can I make the computer from applying the "*.universal.se" to all bogus DNS lookups?

On the Network Connections "Ethernet adapter vEthernet" I have the default settings on TCP/IP DNS tab:

-Append primary and connection specific DNS suffixes [checked]
-Append parent suffixes of the primary DNS suffix [unchecked]
-DNS suffix for this connection: [empty]
-Register this connection's addesses in DNS [unchecked]
-Use this connection's DNS suffix in DNS registration [unchecked]

ipconfig /all output:

C:\Windows\system32>ipconfig /all

Note I am using Hyper-V server on this computer so my "Ethernet adapter vEthernet" is where I set DNS settings.

Hyper-V Virtual Ethernet Adapter is using "Ethernet" connection "Marvell Yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller", the Marvell one only have one Hyper-V Extensible Virtual Switch item on properties so I cant set "DNS on TCP/IPv4" there.

    You say you know it's going to apply those DNs suffixes to unqualified hosts, yet you start by saying your surprised that it's adding it to an unqualified host name you put in. Do you understand what a "qualified" host name is? Why not just take that domain out of your DNS Suffix Search List? Why is it in your settings at all? Dec 17, 2013 at 16:57

    if you have truely never configured a search entry for Universal.se, then you may be the victim of ISP NX-squatting, but that doesn't explain why it appears in your DNS search list. for your nic, under IP settings, click the advanced button, and remove any settings under the DNS tab.

    under Computer -> Properties under Computer Name, Domain and Workgroup settings, what do you see under 'Full Name'? Dec 17, 2013 at 17:36

    Is 192.168.0.1 another computer or a router? It is acting as your DHCP server and could be passing universal.se to you.

    if that is the case, then it is likely your ISP intercepting any NX responses and directing you to their page. Dec 17, 2013 at 19:03
