No problem with Fx57 on Linux @ https://my-free-mp3.net/
Looks like your problem is a "windows" problem and its malwares => may be not the right forum to solve.
Or try to reinstall a clean windows to verify you still have a problem.

As a test, create a new, clean Profile & see if you can open the site with that.
Fire 750, bring back 250.

A so called "malware cleaner" can be a malware itself (to not say most often). It's even the best solution to install a malware.
I don't use windows at all for yeeeaars, but I remember well that the only possibility to get a clean windows is to reinstall it.
You should easily find some help on windows forums to learn how to reinstall windows.

A fresh Firefox profile can be a temporary solution, but will not solve the root cause.

Flush the DNS cache. It's possible the link you have configured is trying to connect to an old server which is present in your Windows 10 resolver cache, but the site has switched to Cloudflare in the meantime.

If you don't know how to flush the dns cache on Windows 10, see instructions here: https://www.technipages.com/flush-and-r ... g-ipconfig
