Check the I know what I'm doing box. In the Keep box you should see one or more instances of these files.
calsp.dll
aklsp.dll
Select every instance of these two files and move each one to the Remove box by clicking the >> button. Be sure not to move any other files only calsp.dll or aklsp.dll
I realized the same thing happened when i tried to download stinger.. something's preventing me from downloading.. i had to download it on another computer, save it on a disk, and open it on this one..

The bad news is that this is a very new variant for which there is no automated removal process, at least not at the time I am typing this. I've seen this same issue in several logs recently. I am searching for a reliable fix that will not take you through dozens of steps with varying degrees of success. If you can be patient, I am certain that we can help you remove this parasite.
In the meantime, let's see if this fixes your ability to connect to certain sites.
I'd recommend installing, updating, and performing a full virus scan on your computer as soon as possible. Stinger, which you ran earlier, only searches for a few viruses and is not a full antivirus program.

Fix that entry then find and delete SED, reboot and post a new log.

Download Hoster.
http://members.aol.com/toadbee/hoster.zip
This will restore your original Host files.
Run the program and press Restore Original Hosts and press OK.
And lastly, I do not see an anti-virus program in your log. You can download an excellent(and free) antivirus program from here.

I'd recommend installing, updating, and performing a full virus scan on your computer as soon as possible. Stinger, which you ran earlier, only searches for a few viruses and is not a full antivirus program.
