Firefox automatically updated to v 44.0 (20160123151951) yesterday. Since then I cannot download pages from the web. Outlook and IE both work fine, only Firefox won't. The little circle keeps spinning and the word 'connecting' appears, but nothing else.

hi, can you please see if uninstalling firefox 44 first and then installing the 64bit version from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ does solve this issue for you?
