Issue

Firefox is having problems with certain web sites

Description

I've had this website as my homepage in Firefox for years without any problem (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed). Recently (as of 1 week or so) I get redirected to https://proxy.ucla.edu/auth?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fentrez%2Fquery.fcgi%3Fdb%3DPubMed when I try to load this in firefox. I don't have a problem with safari. What is going on here. I happens with all the NCBI websites in firefox but not with other browsers. Haven't checked other bookmarks rigorously, but this seems to be the only problem.
