Browser anomaly
I recently ran Malware Bytes on my machine because a foreign, "anti spyware," program installed itself onto my system from no where. I believe I eliminated the problem, but it wasn't until today that I noticed a strange behavioral pattern with all of my internet browser. I was trying to upload a youtube video through firefox when an unknown error occurred, so I thought using Internet Explorer will be a better bet until I resolved it.. but internet explorer will not display any webpages (it says they are not available).
I freshly installed Opera hoping it was a small program but alas, it gave me the same issue as well. I wouldn't normally post in these boards if it was something small, but I figured something suspicious was going on because of what happened yesterday and didn't want to take any chances. Here is what I can muster with hijackthis:

I tried installing programs like Spybot Search and Destroy, but I can not connect to the server for the same reason I believe. I have taken screenshots of these events, and will provide them upon request as instructed by the stickies. I'd appreciate any help you can give me, and I will be more than willing to fulfill an instruction.
