Does Firefox start up and is unable to access the internet, if that is the case see Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can.

Does Firefox fail to start up at all, if so see Firefox won't start - find solutions.

If you get any error messages please give details of them.

Thanks Tony! It seems to be a proxy issue. I set the proxy in the IE as empty, which means that i don't use proxy at all, and "use the sytem proxy settings" in FF. Once i changed the setting into No proxy in FF, it works now.. It's a little strange but anyway, i can access internet.. Thanks again! BR, Alex Von
