I think the mesage that appears every time I start up Firefox, telling me I could win an iphone4S, and that will not go away, originates from wwwprizegiveaway.org. When I try to access that website , 'Connecting' just blinks for ever. Can you please help me, it does not happen with IE but I prefer Firefox. Thanks for taking the time to read this. jim

Possible you have encountered a malware intrusion. But first, try this:

TOOLS => Options => General and look at the URL that opens when Firefox starts. It may be the site advertising the iPhone and if so, remove it.

Then run a malware scan such as MalwareBytes for instance:
