I'm confused. When I hit ok in the search window it takes me right to the etc folder which shows the host file. when I try to open the host file it takes me to the choice window. Am I starting from the wrong place?

Prescottbob,

Let's just forget the hosts thing...

If you have the Addition.txt that was created when you initially ran FRST, please attach it to a post.

Next, please go to Post #117 and use the ESET ServicesRepair Utility.

Then run the Farbar Service Scanner the same as before, and post the new FSS.txt in your reply.

# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each

There is a last line entry missing in the hosta file, maybe it got cut off:
# ::1 localhost


Give this a last try:

Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories, and find the Command Prompt
Right-click the Command Prompt and select: Run as Administrator

At the blinking cursor of the Command Prompt, copy/paste the following text inside the code box, and press: Enter
Code:
notepad C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

When done, please provide the results. (Go to the cmd icon on the upper left, Edit > Select all, Edit > Copy...etc.)

In the mean time, will check the Addition.txt

This is very important:
Post #117: ESET ServicesRepair Utility.

Run the Farbar Service Scanner and post the new FSS.txt in your reply.

cottonball and VistaKing, Prescottbob still has adware and can't use Internernet Explorer ... therefor, he's apparently not able to update the Windows "Critical" section!

I'm going to suggest that (YOU) Prescottbob, download AdWareCleaner, save to AdwCleaner Download your desktop.
1.Right-click on adwcleaner.exe and select Run As Administrator to launch the application.
2.Click on Delete button.
3.Confirm each time with OK.
4.Your computer will be rebooted automatically.

A text file will open after the restart. Please post the content of that logfile in your reply.

Once we have this report, we can proceed accordingly.

@cottonball ... CF may be in order here.

@Jacee,

Was going to run AdwCleaner next, but, you beat me to it. Trying to work another thread elsewhere...

As far as ComboFix, will give it a whirl, but, it would surprise me if it took care of all those services.

@Prescottbob,

Please do the following before moving on to the next step: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/697-system-restore-point-create.html

Now, download ComboFix:
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
Save ComboFix.exe to the Desktop <<---

If it goes to the Downloads folder, please move it to the Desktop using Windows Explorer, or download it to a USB flash drive, and then move to the Desktop..

Now, please disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, as they interfere with tools and their removal.
Info on how to disable security applications: How To Temporarily Disable Your Anti-virus, Firewall And Anti-malware Programs - Security Mini-Guides

Next, double-click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
