Ok, let's take Spybot completely out of the equation - you uninstalled it, now restore the hosts file to default
Follow this and run the MS fixit: How can I reset the Hosts file back to the default?
I didn't think your PC was named that :) now you know what the name is for certain.
Way back in post 4, there were 10 malwares found. I still would like to run ESET scanner and AdwCleaner after the MS fixit for the hosts file. You said you have adwcleaner, but I'd prefer it if you download a new version. There are updates and I do not know if any of the 10 malware on your system might have compromised AdwCleanr (probably not, but a fresh download - you'l know for sure)
re: delete posts, good thinking, that might be the reason. It's not important that it be deleted.
I'll write two new posts on ESET (lengthy, but thorough) and Adwcleaner, run them in that order, post the results.
So start with the MS fixit and I'l start the next two posts
