From what I could learn about the products of that company in 5
minutes, the symptoms you report make sense if the software you
thought you had removed remains installed. My guess is the software
concerns itself with maintaining connectivity (and of course doing the
things that are classified as malware) as long as the connectivity is
done through a browser, or other things whitelisted by the software.
Since nslookup and setup-x86_64 are not the browser, the software
blocks them. The software is not interested in things that enable you
to do non-browser things. Have you rescanned your system? Which
software is still using the internet successfully?
