Firefox frequently (and annoyingly) blocks trusted sites from loading, sites like Sprint.com, for example. I know of no instance where they have blocked a malicious site and I find this practice annoying. How may I stop this from occurring?

What error appears when you try to access websites such as Sprint.com? Does this only happen on certain websites or websites only with HTTPS?

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware. Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is there for. Also, check the programs that are on your computer Windows > Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. (Mac: Open the "Applications" folder) Go thru the list and use a web search to check any that you don't know what they are.
