I updated Firefox on my desktop, but now I can't get on the internet at all. How do I get the internet back?

It is possible that your firewall or other security software 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 install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

See:

You can check if you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the Shift/Options key.
