Firefox scam: hmm. we're having trouble finding that site

Does anyone have information on this scam?i have witnessed this many times in the past year. i'm not sure which update started this behavior.

i try to open a page and get this message.
i switch to blaze and it opens immediately.
i switch back to firefox and still get that message.
after a few minutes firefox will open the page.

it sure seems like they have a throttling algorithm in play for websites they don't like.
