Firefox is the only browser that wont load any web sites all of a sudden. I get a message saying : The connection has timed out The server at (any site I try to connect to) is taking too long to respond. I dont have this trouble with IE chrome or opera just firefox. Please someone help me fix this...firefox is the only browser I use.

Hello dalmar6677, It's not problem with your browser,it's problem with your internet connection.i think the bandwidth you are using is very slow.if you don't think so try using Firefox in safe mode this may help you. Thank you Dyvik.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
