If you find that your hosts file gets replaced every time you try to modify it, you obviously have a process resident in memory that is changing it.

I had taken a look at a computer once that had one of these on it. It loaded itself into the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\something or other\exefile\open registry key to make sure that it got itself installed everytime a program was run. Make sure that you run most of these utilities (I'm not sure about LSPFix or Winsockfix) in safe mode. Before that, AVG or Norton etc because they scan registry keys too.
