Hi - I did reset Firefox - but the Facebook page is still blocked.
hello revlee4, this message may be rendered by malware itself. go to tyler's first link and run a scan with the tools recommended in the "How do I get rid of malware?" section...
Hi - I tried - but still no successssssss....sigh
could you go to the firefox menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? this might give us a clue what is going on...

ok, this looks alright so far. can you try to reset your hosts file with the ms fixit from https://support2.microsoft.com/kb/972034?
also run a scan with free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner in case you have not used those two tools so far...
Thanks - I had to have an urgent meeting with someone and am off. Will try tomorrow morning, Rev. Lee Ireland
