I've trying to go on Internet for more than 2 hours now. First it took more than 10 min for Mozilla to start up. Then it does not connect to any website and keeps on searching. It's very frustrating and like to have it resolved ASAP.

Thank you.

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.

See:


normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions:
