Problems Encountered: N/A
I ended up using Comodo based purely on its score from the site you gave me and it would be awesome if you could help me set it up properly. I would say I am an avid gamer and play games such as World of Warcraft, League Of Legends and many of the Steam games such as TF2 and Half Life and Left 4 Dead. My DxDiag can be found at HERE but a summary of my computer is Windows 7 professional, no service pack, and I use the internet avidly. So your professional input on how to set it up would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I am almost 95% sure I am still infected. Today, while this site was down, I was surfing the internet and my web page went from a full page to a maximized page and went to this IP address, 208.109.186.145. Then was forwarded to some other random web page completely irrelevant to what I was searching for. Also, I went into my hosts file and noticed that it had all been erased, and was instead replaced with 127.0.0.1. That's what really got me going, but AVG didn't detect anything under a rootkit, shell, and full computer scan.
Thanks for the great help so far!

P.S. I have a program (CurrPort) and have 4 logs that I created with the internet off, turning it on, opening the internet, and another of when I went to a login page such as hotmail or battle.net. I was trying to trigger the process to start and maybe try to make a connection or something, if you would like the logs let me know and I'll PM them to you. Not sure I would want to share that over an open thread >.> Again thanks for all the great help so far.
