When I opened my Mozilla yesterday, I think the problem was with the internet conexion. But when I try the Internet Explorer everything was OK. Until today, the Firefox is not working. For example, a mesange that shows inthe screen is:

The connection has timed out 

     The server at www.google.com.br is taking too long to respond.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
 If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
 If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that 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.
