I just upgraded my work lap top to windows 7 64bit and when I am plugged into my network Fire Fox will not run at all. I have disabled my MS firewall and the setting is on to automatically detect. But will still not connect. When I am at home with the same laptop connecting through my wireless at home ecverything is fine. Any suggestions?

You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy" (or one of the others) if the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't work.

See "Firefox connection settings":
