Open dns blocks sites such as Victoria's secret and an art studio I want to go to for nudity, lol. I don't remember loading it onto my computer and I don't have admin access to Open dns. So I can't uninstall or unblock sites. Also I get a message that Firefox could not update. I have the latest version of Firefox.

"...I don't have admin access..."

Talk to the administrator, OpenDNS can be used to block access to sites and that may be the reason it is on your system.

I don't have an administrator, so I don't know who to ask. I contacted OpenDNS and they replied: You have a Netgear router on your network with Live Parental Controls enabled.

Please go to https://netgear.opendns.com/sign_in.php to change your Live Parental Controls settings.

Afterward, flush your web browser caches and DNS resolver caches.

I'm going to try and see if that helps.
