I did clean all the caches, deleted the current copy of Firefox, cleaned the computer and the registry again and reinstalled Mozilla. I have been using it for the past hour and have not seen one redirect. Is it possible that I eliminated the problem without having to reset the router?
It did reset to automatic settings. I can still reset the router, but I will have to wait until my father comes home to get his paperwork for the router and his connections in order to that.

Thanks again for all your help. I have learned a lot.
Hi lbragg,

In future I would avoid registry cleaning tools as they can cause serious damage.

It's possible, keep using it and see if the redirects return.

OK, only reset the router if the redirection starts again. Make a note of the ISP support phone number in case you have any problems.
