I've tried removing Hoxx

What is this? What is it for?

Is this an add-on or plugin? Open the Add-ons Manager and disable it.

Thanks Fred,

It's a VPN add-on. As I said I've already removed it, so I can't disable it. Very vexing.

Now do the same in the computers Programs Folder.

Windows: Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs. Mac: Open the "Applications" folder. Linux: Check your user manual.

It wasn't listed among the programs. I tried uninstalling Firefox then reinstalling from there. Now Firefox and the message are in Spanish. Haha. Strange days.

Let’s do a full clean re-install; Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link} Save the file. Then Close Firefox.

Using your file browser, open the Programs Folder on your computer.

Windows: C:\Program Files C:\Program Files (x86) Mac: Open the "Applications" folder.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-mac Linux: Check your user manual. If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder Firefox in your home directory.

Do Not remove the profiles folder.

Look for, and rename any Mozilla or Firefox program folders by adding .old to them. Do not rename the Mozilla Thunderbird folder.

After rebooting the computer, run a registry scanner. Then run the installer. If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.

If there is a problem, start your Computer in safe mode and try again.

Thanks Fred,

Turns out I had to set it to "no proxy"

Options- Advanced- Network- Settings- No Proxy

That solved the problem.
