On Internet Explorer there is an option under tools that allows you to turn on or enable something called content advisor which asks for a password before going to any webpage. I want to know how to set this up on Firefox if possible.

The feature makes the browser completely inoperable until the password is entered? As far as I know, Firefox doesn't have anything like that built in.

There are some add-ons which password protect Firefox in a limited sense. This thread has an example: can I protect a profile with a password? However, users may be able to bypass this protection in a couple different ways, so it's certainly not airtight.

You might need external software to have more control over Firefox. See for example:
