Strange http redirection, need help!

I run into a very strange problem on my powerbook. I use the mac since 20 years and never had such thing. Each time I try to access a site (any site) with the ".de" TLD (domain for Germany), my request is redirected at the site "www.auktionen-9.de". I can access any other site in the world (well, I did not tried all domains...) except with the domain de. This is happening in several countries with different providers, so it is not a router problem.
Now, the strange thing is that only occurs while I am connected with a Wi-Fi connection. If I connect through the GSM network with 3G (I used a 3G data card with Launch2Net), no problem, in that case I can access any site. What is modifying my DNS settings when connecting with Airport ?
I know there are no viruses, but perhaps a new trojan?
Thanks for any help...

Just found it. After checking for hours, trying several anti-virus, etc., it appears that it was a faulty DNS server. I manually changed my default DNS server and it worked. And during a 3G data card connection the DNS server is automatically another one, which I did not realized.
Never thought that a DNS server would be hacked this way...
