Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.hesco-lf.com
Since  others are not being redirected, it is presumed that mtnl DNS 
is ok.

So it looks like your DNS is spoofed. This could happen in any number 
of ways.
edit resolv.conf to use opendns (assuming that fedora and this install 
uses resolv.conf).

If he is using an adsl, check the password on the adsl modem. If it is 
the default, change it after getting the adsl to the default factory 
setting and reconfiguring. If it continues to misdirect to porn you 
will have to reflash the adsl with a known good firmware (or simply 
chuck it out and get a new one for Rs.1500 odd).

BTW, yet to hear of a malware infection on linux in 10 years.
