I try to go to certain websites that I've had no problem going to before, and suddenly, it says, "Page cannot complete because the server is loading in such a way that it will never complete." I've tried erasing my cookies, and it still persists. Help!

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.

Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
