Question by AKA: How do I prevent Firefox from opening a site that has a virus?
Every few minutes, Firefox tries to open a website. Because I thought me a trojan from my computer. So the link to the virus no longer works, but Firefox keeps trying to open it. She says she can not be displayed on this website. The way I avoid this?

    Try running this. I had some persistant viruses that would not get off until I used malwarebytes.

    Sounds like your computer is still infected with a virus which insist on loading up that web page. I would suggest trying a different type of anti-virus tool to take care of the problem.

    i have firefox, i use a v g free edition 8, any time i go to visit web pages
    it pops up an alert if any of the sites are harmful so i don’t open any.
    you need to run another virus program on your comp to see if you
    have any virus left on your computer.
