Sounds like your brother has privoxy enabled, if he doesn't know what it is or how it works he should probably disable it.

So how do I disable it?
You would have to reset the Firefox connection settings.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > Network : Connection > Settings
You can select "Use the system proxy settings" or "No Proxy" in case the former doesn't work properly.
See "Firefox connection settings":
