Firefox no longer loads certain, not all, much used websites.
Firefox no longer loads some sites from my "most visited" or bookmarks. I use them a lot. I have no access at all for some reason. Example below: Fred Meyer Pharmacy

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I tried everything. No luck. I have three websites (huffingtonpost; fredmeyer; usanetwork) that show "server not found" or "link broken." There is also a DNS error for ad.doubleclick.net that seems to be part of the problem. I thought I got disabled "www.searchqu.com/406" but it still appears sometimes.
Your directions were superb and easy to follow. Maybe I missed something.
