My Firefox is having issues with locating sites like msn.com and google. The sites work as they should on Safari. I would like do you a full UN-install with all file that may be in the user/lib and system/lib and preferences on Mac OSX 10.9

Hi there. The link was correct, but you accessed it with a Windows browser. Many pages on this site will give system specific information.

Here is the Mac instructions (notice the end of the link); https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer#firefox:mac:fx44

Thanks of the replay, but it does not work.

As indicated in my post, this is for a Mac OSX 10.9 computer. The link does not work on Mac's. I have also removed the Application and the user preferences and re-installed a number of time and still cannot get it to work.

It is like the FireFox to DNS resolver is not working.
