Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.pcworld.com.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

this is the only site I have a problem with. If I use "open link in IE Tab" site loads.

Try disabling the HTTPS-Everywhere extension, or make an exception for this site if possible. See: You block a computer website that Chrome and IE don't.

FYI, this extension also is associated with crashes for some users.
