Is anyone working to fix Firefox "The proxy server is refusing connections" problem?
Or, should we who are affected ditch Mozilla products and go back to the dark side?

You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"
See "Firefox connection settings":

It worked - thanks!!!!!
You're welcome
that's a one time fix, the next time you open the browser it happens again, is there a more permanent fix? I have better things to do with my life than go through this every time I open a browser.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
