    Anti-Malware/Spyware/Virus software not fixing problem

    I've seen infections like this before, and a few times they turned out to be a MBR infection, like sinowal. Easy fix. Boot from windows disc > choose repair > fixmbr > reboot No harm

    Can't get to google

    If you ping google, do you get a correct IP? If I ping google I get 74.125.19.104, it will probably be different for you, but I can get to google via http://74.125.19.104/. Maybe verify the ip your resolving for google.com on another machine.

    Windows Defender

    I was playing around with windows 7, and some rogue baddies like, AV360, Personal Antivirus, SYSGuard, PC Defender, etc.. It detected and removed most of them. It did a great job.

    Which is the best defragmenting software?

    I not a big fan either, but I believe it could improve the chance of data recovery. If your mft(s) gets borked, and you defragment often then you have a better chance of getting more data back.
