If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options
c:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
you probably should have only one rule in it
127.0.0.1 localhost
Some hacks will setup name/ip rules in here overiding anything you get
from a DNS lookup!
I don't think that is what is going on for you but you should still

I think you are still hacked and the program is getting every other

I would second the recomendataion on getting the latest version of
hijack this.
Great world we live in now isn't it?
