Well, you've got both HandsOff and Little Snitch installed, plus multiple antivirus packages, and SIP is off. Fix those first.

The hosts file is the most glaring issue which could allow MIM attacks.

Hard to say from this whether or not you've been compromised but your system is pretty screwed up.

I belive someone is hosting a webhost server or something to change website content. Also, if i google certain words the first meaning of the word is often wrong. I had someone over who did an badusb attack on me. i think someone is hosting a mirror server to mirror my whole computer.
There's no indication that you've been hacked but in addition to the other problems mentioned, you're missing several Apple security updates so install those using the App Store app.

on the land line mr. smith.
You might also consider running the Combination Updater. Besides updating...it should restore any missing or corrupt OS components. No harm in running it.

A Safe Boot will disable any third party kexts if you want to test.

Why do you think it is mirroring your entire computer?

Strange/incorrect search and web results are most often the work of malware/adware/hijacked search prefs or defaults.

I know it's a drag, especially with a hackintosh, but I'd recommend a clean install.
There's so much stuff partially un/installed it's a wonder that it works at all.

What kind of computer is this? I see that EtreCheck is saying it's an iMac, but it doesn't look like it's an iMac. If it's a non-Apple computer, you're pretty much going to have these problems all the time and there is little-to-nothing anyone can do to help you here. If it is an Apple iMac, then I agree with Boodle, back-up the documents on your computer, erase the storage drive and re-install the OS.

When you get the OS reinstalled, DO NOT install virus protection and DO NOT install CleanMyMac. You need to choose between HandOff and LittleSnitch - but don't use both (they do the same thing anyway, so no reason to use both). I think I can guess why you're using them both those apps, so I can only say that you probably shouldn't do that - but that's your choice.

I would not bother with "anti-virus" software.

THERE IS ONE EXCEPTION:
Download MalwareBytes and use it occasionally to check for malware/adware.
It's FREE.
IGNORE the prompts to "upgrade to the paid version".
It will continue to run "in free mode" forever.

There have been no (that means, "zero") Mac viruses found "in the wild", but there ARE bits of malware and adware that are "out there" from time to time.

I got hit with one myself -- first time in 30 years of Mac'ing.
MalwareBytes found it and got rid of it in one pass.
