A website keeps saying "This website is a threat to your computer" or something like that when I go to certain websites. I scanned my computer with McAfee and it said that the website posting that was a hazard to my computer. I can't find any antivirus software (for free) to download to my computer that works (my computer says there's an error when downloading) and when I looked at the page again it had something that said "..I.. " in it and the I was lowercase so i figured that an official page would at least have all that kind of stuff capitalized. I just want to know how to block this website (or get a link to an antivirus download, for free, that actually works).

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I went to get on a website

Really no need to install anything to block websites, you can use the HOSTS file that is in every Operating System. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOSTS

Just a matter of locating the HOSTS file and learning a little bit about how to add a domain or IP address you want to block to that file.
