it does say make read only when I press this it changers to make writeable (but has a keylock next to it as if it is locked) when I then press it, it just goes back to make read only

What happens if you just delete the hosts file?

Microsoft's hosts file is this

127.0.0.1 localhost

not needed to use the pc, you don't need a hosts file, so deleting the file has the same effect as running third party software to restore it to defaults.

Download and run the FREE version of DR WEB
http://www.freedrweb.com/download+cureit/gr/
Turn your anti virus OFF
Click CANCEL to the 'Would you like to read purchase terms now?' message
Click START click OK
It will auto QUICK scan
After that set to scan the WHOLE computer and press the 'play' icon

***DO NOT UPGRADE TO FULL VERSION***

If the hosts file isnt as it should be it 'should' give you the option of restoring it
