I try to go to those pages. Immediately (without loading or any wait) I get an "unable to connect" message. On Firefox, it says "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.cj.com." On Safari, it says "Safari can’t connect to the server." Yet I can access these websites using a PC which is on the same wireless network.

What is going on?! I don't know where the problem is. Is it the network, the computer, a firewall? It's making me crazy because new sites keep getting added to this "blacklist," often sites that I need to access for my business. This is very inconvenient.

If this happens with both Firefox and Safari, it may be a problem with the internet connection on your mac. Do other internet applications work (mail, etc)?

Check the Airport menu on your mac and confirm that the icon isn't greyed out or has an exclamation mark.
