    Hey having a problem with my firefox,
    I got a 3mb bb connection recently installed and for some reason can't use firefox to surf the net. I can use IE fine. Firewall is disabled

    Does anyone have similar problem

    Cheers in advance

    make sure the XP firewall is disabled too if it already isn`t.

    :eek: Don'tdisable XP firewall unless you are 110% sure you have another working firewall in place.

    If IE is using a proxy server then FireFox should too and visa versa

    start
    run
    firefox -p

    choose a new profile to see if the default settings are OK

    download 1.07 if not using it alread and set it up
    if you use zonealarm or other firewall you should get a pop up to allow it out.
