Well, here is your first problem. You are letting a few bad beats affect your play, and that's going to cost you dearly on the hands you DO win.... you won't be winning as much to help offset your losses from the bad beats.

As for the beats, yes, some of them were pretty big, but others weren't THAT bad. Remember, even when you are a 4:1 favorite, that still means you should expect to lose 20% of the time in the long run. The best hand doesn't always hold up... it's just math. Play enough hands, and you'll see all sorts of stuff.

I'm not going to go into the whole "Is online poker rigged" thing (we have threads about that though, if you feel like searching for them), but it certainly is not.
