Firefox does not connect to the internet on this computer, though it does on another computer and though Internet Explorer also connects without any obvious problem.
About 1 year ago I helped to set up Firefox on my mother's computer. It worked fine until a couple of days ago. Now it no longer connects to the internet. The system is Windows XP, service pack 3. Internet Exporer does connect to the Internet on this computer. Also, I have another computer with Firefox and it works with no problem wirelessly. We tried removing Firefox and then reloading it and that did not help. We get no error messages. The internet and Firefox simply don't seem to see each other.

Sounds like a Firewall problem, seems to affect Firefox more than other browsers.

Thank you so much, dmcritchie. You have solved my problem. I've fixed the firewall and now Firefox is working.
