When I open firefox, it opens. But when I try to use it to browse the internet, it says "Offline mode/Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web./ Uncheck the "Work Offline" menu item, then try again.

It's been this way for 3 days now. I started using another browser, but I'd prefer to use firefox. How do I get the firefox browser working again?

Chosen solution

-> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar

-> go to File Menu -> unselect Work Offline

Try the following solutions and whichever setting works, keep it Permanent:

1) go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> click "Settings..." button infront of Connection -> select option1 -> Click OK -> OK

2) go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> click "Settings..." button infront of Connection -> select option2 -> Click OK -> OK

3) go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> click "Settings..." button infront of Connection -> select option3 -> Click OK -> OK

I think I know how... Check your anti virus system's program permissions. It could have blocked Firefox by mistake. (Happened to me while using McAfee :p)

Thanks for trying to help me, but it didn't work. One thing I discovered is I can go in through "bookmarks" and some files will open. Thus, I'm not totally offline and that just makes it more bizarre. I'm at a loss.

Thanks, again, for your effort.
