New Keep It Simple, Stupid
Your netmask is too big. Make it 255.255.0.0 instead of 255.0.0.0 and all will be well. Stop hacking your routing table :)

If you somehow need or want that big network, make it 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0.

New Not my idea. :(
I didn't put that entry in there, and I certainly wouldn't have put in that stupid netmask. The entry just appears and disappears on its own, and what's worse..I can't delete the entry.

&*$#(*&^ Windows.

Things are better now with the new firewall, though...it might have had something to do with the old DSL router, which used to be the first hop--it had a DHCP server built in, which I turned off, but--you just never know what 'off' means these days.
That's her, officer! That's the woman that programmed me for evil!

It is fine to have low opinions of people's friends when they are assholes.
