Heads up I make the call, but the button hanging around all that time worries me. I guess he could be some idiot hanging around with a straight draw, but I doubt it. He really can only be calling this far with a high spade. While UTG might be bluffing, the button probably has you beat and will call.

It's really hard to tell what you should be doing here without knowing how they play. Against bad players, you could be up against someone who really feels good about a high pair. Plus, unless I am reading this wrong, you get 5 to 1 on your money to call here. I'm not familiar with how converter does things but that's what it looks like to me. If that's the case, you figure there is a good chance that out of the 4 cards your opponents are holding there is 9/45 chance that one of them is a diamond given the cards you can actually see. All things being equal, you are barely under even to call here with the pot odds given. Plus, you can always kick up your odds slightly against bad players...so if these guys are below average, I call. If they have been playing well, the situation changes a bit...If they're good and...you've been playing tight to this point I would call just to show you'll play against a river bet for future hands and it shows your earlier bets weren't bluffs. If you've been aggressive this is probably one to lay down.
