Contaminated with what?????

This is what popped up right after loading that site "content checker
found virus: HTML.Phishing.Bank-292". Along with that, after I closed
Firefox I tried to open it again and kept getting a window saying that
it was already in use.

I got a Windows Media Player dynamic link library pop-up that reported the
plug-in performed an illegal operation, and strongly advised I restart
Firefox. I run Noscript and adblock based on something I read here. I
updated and ran Norton, AdAware and Spybot, and found nothing more than a
couple of garden-variety tracking cookies I might have picked up anywhere.
