On my desktop I'm having continuous problems today with my desktop. I'm currently on my laptop due to blue screen errors... Here are descriptions of whats happening.
I'm receiving continuous Malicious URL Blocked from Avast
Infection Details
URL: hxxp://espeak911.com/x/
Process: C:\Windows\System32\services.exe
Infection: URL:Mal
and 2 more similar to this. I also cannot view google at the time and I'm starting to get blue screen errors. Actually my desktop is restarting after about 10 minutes.
AntiMalware Bytes and Avast haven't found any malware. Help would be greatly appreciated.

@ wordism
When posting URLs to suspect sites - Please 'modify' the URL
change the URL from http to hXXp
, to break the link and avoid accidental exposure to suspect sites, thanks.

thanks for the tips guys. I eventually found out that I had a rootkit.
I think everything may be fine now

Yes there is most likely a rootkit involvement, but this one may be more complex as the services.exe may have been modified also.
Personally I would advise following up on the link Pondus gave you.
