Not all Websites are connecting in Win7
There is a user who can only get to some websites!!
We ran some scans and they didn't turn up anything.
So, I looked at the LMhost file and it had crap added to it.
but still this didn't resolved it.
The OS is Win7, its on a domain all other computer are working fine.
Plus, I noticeed they were using spypot and theere were LMhost file bak, that I think it created. we uninstalled Spybot so I cant do a restore?

Thanks guys
They should not have or be using spybot and LMHosts should be all comments. So the user has damaged their own system.
cant do a restore <-- Does this mean you cannot restore to a prior point?
Run a thorough scan with your own Antivirus, then restart and scan with Malwarebytes.
If that does not solve it, then rebuild the system. This is often the only reliable fix. Make certain this user is a standard (restricted) user and that UAC is turned ON. This will help to stop this damage.
