I encountered something before that blocked google.  Try going straight to some known antivirus sites too, if those are blocked you might have a problem.

All except for Norton loaded, though McAfee took a couple of tries while Avast! and MSE would only load the text. I have a full MSE scan running right now, and will be running anti-malware and anti-spyware afterward, though I don't know if they will find anything.

Sirus, check your Proxy settings in all your browsers; if that seems fine, restart (thoguh you're already doing that). Also, you could try switching your DNS settings.

I'm holding off on the restart until my scans are finished; I once restarted without scanning and it took nearly a week to clean out of my system afterward.

I'm not using any proxy on my browser currently (not sure if that's how it's supposed to be or not). The DNS and stuff like that is all set to automatic.

TURBOEDIT: Okay...browsing is working just fine now? O_o;
Things are moving a little more slowly than usual, but all the websites I've tried to visit (including Google and a variety of anti-whatever sites) are loading again.
Still gonna scan everything and restart though.

Spoke too soon, shit's broken again.

Samus VS Master Chief All the Spartans, because quite frankly Samus is so powerful she needs a spehss handbag to store the skulls of the enemies she's personally decapitated. Without even raising a finger.

... y'all haven't seen th'CG animation of that? Because there was one, a while back. Checking up on it, fellow named Monty Oum did it.

Personally, I like the end results, but I don't know if it jives with Halo canon anymore. Has any of the latest stuff shown what's under the helmet?

What, Haloid? That was crap. I mean, it was pretty impressive for being done by one guy, but I don't think you could call any of it anything approaching canon. My favorite part was how Chief got pummeled for several minutes by Samus without any injury, only to have Samus' power suit fall off from one hit.

Do my eyes spy a new Eevee-lution?

It certainly is a very modular suit. Chozo didn't slack at all in the modding support.

That's practically canon.

My personal theory is that she donates whatever she doesn't need, or requires specific technology/energy to run, to Federation scientists after each mission. And of course, at the beginning of each of the missions we see she usually loses most of the rest, but those bits seem to be easily replaceable.

I'm sure there are better or more efficient ways to get it done, but my only tools are: the game I'm playing, Paint, and the Snipping Tool on Windows 7 computers. Find an image-hosting service that allows multiple uploads at once, and save the URLs of any images you anticipate using frequently. Be prepared to do a heck of a lot of writing; the exact amount will vary based on how closely you want to follow any text in-game. And definitely try to give your player some character, since the game gives you none to work with.
