Problem #1:
atdmt.com
(There are about 17 entries associated with this address, there is probably only one that is the problem.)
Problem #2:
om.symantec.com
(Does this need to be blocked seeing Norton is going to be removing it?)

Just for the record: we do not update the data (i.e. websites) that is blacklisted, we use the hosts data from

Problem 2: Are you using an older version of Norton Internet Security? om.symantec.com being removed by NIS sounds like a problem that was being falsely removed from the HOSTS file by older versions of NIS. If my memory serves me correctly, this was fixed with NIS 2011. I have NIS 2013 currently installed and it does not flag om.symantec.com. I assume you are aware that if you have NIS 2006 or later and your subscription is active, that you can update to the latest NIS 2013 version free of charge.
@siliconman01: Thanks for the recommendation and that is what I did. I ignored atdmt.com temporarily while downloading Windows 8.
As for NIS, I am running 2013 (20.2.0.19). I had noticed there was 1 item to be added by JV16PT's Immunization and so I re-immunized and check the last entry in the Hosts file to find om.symantec.com. After this I ran Norton's Get Support to see if it was the cause for removing this address. The address was removed and I can reproduce the results consistently.
