That's easy:

        Author = {{The Free Software Foundation}},

i.e. enclose the Author into another set of curly brackets.

Hard to tell without knowing exactly what settings and what style you  
are using.
Why do you use a "timestamp" field -- does the style you are using  
support that?
With jurabib, you would be able to use a urldate field, perhaps your  
style supports something like that.

You might have to post a minimal example, so that we can reproduce  
what is going on ...

Best regards,
Matthias
