I do not have a great deal of knowledge about computers but I know that many of this forums members due. Hence, I ask for your advice with the following problem. Thank You in Advance:
When I attempt to access any website with Firefox the following screen pops up.

According to this webpage it is because of illicit materials on the site. Nonetheless, whatever this is, it blocks google which certainly isn't illicit. I have tried numerous ways to fix the problem. I have run a scan with microsoft antispyware and norton antvirus and they have not found anything. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and that does not help. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong. Again thanks in advance.

Edit: Forgot to add this: I have no idea what planetlab is and never signed up for any of their studies or anything of the sort.

Edit 2: The screen above comes up when I visit extremely popular sites (for example google.com or espn.com) when i attempt to visit less popular sites a screen with the following comes up:

Not Found

The requested URL /home.aspx was not found on this server.
 
we have a wireless network hooked in our house so three separate computers are on this network with one isp
 
Hmm...from what I saw on that PlanetLab thing it sounded like you might be behind a college network or something. Are you using Internet Connection Sharing at all or just straight LAN? And have you checked to see if anything likely-sounding is in Add/Remove Programs, and if the issue happens in IE too?
 
there si nothing in add/remove programs that sounds even slightly suspicious. the problem does not occur in ie
 
I'd look if it has a proxy or maybe you installed an extension that's doing something weird. Make sure you're downloading Firefox from the official site too. (mozilla.org)
