FireFox help

Posté par JudySis, le Thursday February 7, 2008 12:22:37 PM
Hello,

Everytime I try to start Firefox and get browsing the Internet it always gives me the following message:
Quote:
“The connection has timed out

The server at en-us.start2.mozilla.com is taking too long to respond.

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.”
It's been doing it for every site I try to get to on with Firefox. I also use Opera and IE and they both work fine but I can’t get anything with Firefox…

Any idea why this would happen?

Regards,

Hello,

I assume you are using Windows and a recent version of Firefox.

Check the settings in Tools - Options - Advanced - Network - Parameters...

is Direct Internet connection selected?

Dal, I am on Windows Vista. I get this Connection Timed Out message for only sites that when I click in them, try to connect to global1.onlinebanking.com. I checked what you said about the Direct Interconnection, but it was alreacy checked, so can't be my problem. Any ideas?

Hi!
Are you using FoxyProxy or some other Proxy software with this? I just loaded Firefox up and it runs fine for me. Also are you running the latest version?

I had Firefox in the 2.0.0.1.5 version, and in the past few days it has gotten very slow, eventually not responding at all.
I downloaded 3.0 today and I just keep getting the timed out message.

I have a MAC Book Pro, 10.4 (Tiger).

Thanks, J-Miz
