I updated my firefox, and at the end of the update it said must restart and since then, google nor espn or any other website will load on firefox. But if I go on the internet on ie explorer it works, thus this is how I am writing this right now. But its as if there's some sort of internal firewall?? blocking me from using the internet on firefox. it says can't detect proxy? Any body out there who can help?!? Godspeed clutchfans.
Make sure you didn't block Firefox while it was updating. I accidently did that today but went back to my firewall and clicked allow. That's probably the problem
problem is I don't have a firewall even running, it's weird. norton and spysweeper are running but they don't block things right?
my ez firewall expired about a week ago, and then I updated, and now ez firewall doesn't work and it can't renew either because it tries opening through firefox to renew.
That's weird. What version of Norton are you using? Either try disabling Norton's or reinstalling Firefox.
i installed firefox all over same problem, I'll try the norton thing. yeah norton didn't make a difference. sigh thanks for your help tho. It's probably some box that got checked 5 advanced clicks away lol...
Mine was acting up that way... I ran spybot, nothing, McAfee scan, nothing... Just did the actual "shut down" instead of "hibernate" - now it works just fine. Perhaps it was a registry issue? or something? (not sure... but a total shutdown worked for me) Anyway, it's fine now.
Another Firefox question: I recently changed the password to my Gmail account, and now I am forced to input the new password every time I login to the account. In the past the username and old password were automatically in there since I chose the "Remember Password" option. But since changing the password, it never gave me an option to Remember the new password. Thus I am forced to manually type in my password, although my username is automatically filled out. This is really grinding my gears. Anything someone can suggest to get my new password automatically saved by Firefox?
