one particular website keeps loading instead of website that i want
At different times when I load a website that I want to look at, it sometimes doesn't load and loads to a different website called Babylon (like Google) and suggests that I entered the wrong details. It's annoying me I tried blocking the whole page, didn't work at all. Why is this happening???

this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software ("Browser Manager", "Bprotector", "Object Installer") from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place.
Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page
afterwards you can install the searchreset addon to get rid of the problem or manually reset the page that keyword searches get redirected to. enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named keyword.url - right-click and reset that entry to the default value.

OK great thank you. Really good to get some feedback as I wouldn't have a clue as to what to do, but now I do. Thank You
