This just started the other day. When I open Firefox, my iGoogle homepage diverts to an ad page saying "this account may have reached it's limit, is suspended or this domain no longer exists." It is by Secure Signups.net, 5gigs.net. This does not happen when I use Safari. I prefer to use Firefox. I have restarted and tried to find cookies that might fit, but it doesn't seem to go away. I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. Any ideas?

Open the iGoogle page but press the escape key to stop the page loading. If you have the "My Scores" gadget delete it.
