I need to restrict the below website that maybe a virus. It keeps making itself my homepage and loading as a trusted site even though I never set it up. It did the same thing in Internet Explorer browser. However, there I was able to restrict access. How do I want to restrict access in Firefox?

BlockSite {web link} BlockSite is an extension, which automagically blocks websites of your choice. Additionally, this extension will disable all hyperlinks to these websites, by just displaying the link text without the clicking functionality.
