Essexboy,
I have reset my computer to that original restore point but the problem persists. Thank you for your time, regardless of whether we were able to fix this minor problem or not.
Edit: I tried re-running the All in One fix program that you provided me with in hopes of it correcting the problem, but it actually seemed to make it worse. One more thing I noticed that may help you understand the problem is that when I click to visit the piriform website (the apple on ccleaner) it opens up the link into a word document as though it were a website. So any link offline seems to be taking me to word documents. Filehippo continues to do the same when it finds updates. However, malwarebytes, which updates itself via a server is still able to update.
