    What did you use to do the scan if it's adaware software it gives the options to remove it all but it does show entries that are designed to break activation of some products is cracks

    Use this tool and choose restore Downloads - RstHosts - ToolsLib

    When you ran the cleaner did you delete everything?

    HI Samuria,

    Appreciate that. I ran tthe file as you asked. So that restores the hosts file I guess.

    As for your question about AdwCkleaner I do believe I deleted everything. Here are results from the cleaner and from rkill:
    AdwCleaner report - 5-26-2018.txt
    Rkill.txt

    As for the other stuff above like the files and registry from my first post, what do we do about those?

    The adaware scan hast deleted anything it should request a reboot and display a list of deleted things you have to select and choose remove when you scan it wontdo it on its own.
    PUP are not realy harmful just software you didnt want or need.
    rkill doesnt remove anything its only used to kill anything bad thats running before you run AV
