It sounds like a DNS hijack.
Change you dns provider with the instructions here: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using If you don't like google DNS servers, use the one provided by your ISP.

I am taken to a page at "www.blocked-website.com" which tells me, for example, "Sorry, but (site) is blocked on this network. This site was categorized in (category). Contact your network administrator." Underneath this message it says "Powered by OpenDNS." OpenDNS appears to be legitimate, offering parental controls, but there are no children in this household, and I do not use their services. There are only two computers in the house, my Mac and my wife's PC, both connected to the Internet via a router. Neither have parental controls activated. I contacted my provider, Verizon, and they maintain that nothing has changed with them and that the problem is in my computer. Computer is a dual 1.25 GHz MDD PowerPC G4 running OSX 10.5.8. Browser is Safari 5.0.6. What goes on here?
