    Default Concerns with Startup Tools / Hosts

    Hello,

    I've recently had some problems with trojans (since cleaned with SpyBot) on my machine and whilst looking through the Startup Tools section on SpyBot I clicked on the 'Hosts' tab and noticed dozens of entries in their with what appears to be different web addresses, eg. 007guard.com, and most show an IP address of 127.0.0.1 and are located under \Window\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. My question is this, can anyone tell me what they are and should I be concerned about them? I've struggled to find out any info on this so I thought I'd try SpyBot's forum.
