Hi  ivan.kirchev@abv.bg

Could well be that some malcode tampered with your hosts file. Well do a full scan with MBAM, download from here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-download.php (first update to the latest version).
Also download HJT 2.0.2 from here: http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/download/58170ee6e58bba306c943f5b6d745c99/  and provide us with a logfile txt attached as an additional txt file to your next posting, then we can have a look,
