All that is above everything in my host file it starts at the top, now I can delete all of it then save changes and make it read only and hidden and i can open up my browser and it works good, but if i close it it all comes back. I think it has something to do with alexa.com if i go to that website it says my ip has been blocked due to problems or something, ive never been there nor do I know what it is.

here is my hijackthis log
