Firefox doesn't work with Net Nanny. What to do?
Firefox will not go to any website (other than homepage - MSN), when program Net Nanny is enabled. I have to disable Net Nanny for Firefox to go to other websites. Do not have this issue with IE or Chrome. Solutions? Thanks

In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
- Click the menu button and choose Add-ons.
- Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the Extensions button on the left side of the window.
- You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
- To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the Remove button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
- Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the Restart now link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
Net Nanny is a stand alone program. It is a filtering software. Not an extension or add-on.
How is the problem manifested? For example, do you get an express message from NetNanny that the site is blocked, or a certificate error, or a time-out/server not found?
An earlier thread about NetNanny not supporting Firefox 33:
"Connection was reset" error for https sites after Oct 14 update
Not sure whether they have an update for Firefox 33 by now.
