Does anyone know how to unblock firewall when completing offers under browsers IE8 and Mozilla Firefox?

What type of firewall are you trying to bypass?  One at work, or one at home?

Firewalls generally ask you if you want something blocked. If you accidentally blocked one of the offers, then you'll have to go into your firewall configuration to take it out of the blocked list.

Otherwise, in Firefox you may have something like AdBlock Plus, which could block out particular things you need to see or click on occassionally.

The one from home. I rarely surf online at work as it would be a misuse of company time.

Are you using the firewall built into windows? There are many types of firewalls. Zonealarm, Norton etc., etc. Also many routers have firewall capability or act as a firewall. If you set up the firewall to alert you if it blocks something and don't get any alerts then you should be good as long as you're getting to the sites that you want to see. Most of them block the software or service on your computer that is trying to connect to something.
