Hello,
I am using IE7 and Firefox3, until a week ago when i am having problems uploading files and pictures on my email and friendster. So, I go back to using IE6... now, i can attach email files but still unable to upload/attach pics. I also reinstall firefox 3 but worst, still cannot attach files and pics (yahoomail) and l cannot upload pics to friendster etc. I keep receiving " connection interrupted, connection error, connection reset, and connection not encrypted." I already tried to check my firewalls and also the stuff everybody is talking about changing run time changing it to 30 seconds (about:config), BUT to no avail. Also, my firefox speed is slowing. This really is frustrating me. I have been uninstalling and reinstalling programs already. Can anybody help me make my firefox work same as before? I am not a computer savvy... can you detail the process?

Thanks

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hey thanks. I have browsed a dozen sites where this problem is mentioned and no cure worked. I had on my own cleared cache and forms but not cookies. I still don't see why cookies should cause that behavior but it's a relief to have back the few sites that I had been locked out of by this consternating error.

I have found that this problem is on most internet browsers, i working on www.best4boys.com at the moment and the problem still hapen when using there servers. Is anyone using an o2 wireless router? this could be the problem and not a programme issue.

I believe it is a router problem-probably not problem but set up. I tried to connect directly to my comp (not thru router) and now I don't get the Con interrupted massage any more. I am using TP LINK wireless router. Does anyone has an idea what to change in the router to avoid this?

BR, Tina

Im also having that issue with the TP link router. I switch to an ISP just recently? I think this has something to do with the ISP protocol compatibility issue. because my previus ISP is using a dynamic protocol and i dont have any problem with my TP link but now im using PPPoe im getting connection interrupted and network time out errors

Hi

if you are still having this problem, i feel for you, its a really crappy bug and the fix is going to wind you up even more.

The fix is what fixed it for me, this maybe not the same for you, if you are using vista, firefox and AGV

Fix

Firefox/tools/Add-on's

Disable
AGV safe search 8.5

hope this works

I have been having a problem with "Firefox Connection Interrupted" while using "mail2web.com" site. Eventually I concluded that this problem started after I downloaded a "dictionary" site. I tried a zillion ways to eliminate the problem & then solved it by
1. Open Mozilla Firefox site
2. click on "tools"
3. click on "Add- ons,
4. On the next screen click on "extensions".
Now on this screen I found the problem extension that was loaded during the dictionary download. I clicked on that extension & found that there was an icon to "uninstall" the problem "Add-on". There was even an icon that allowed me to restart Firefox. After the restart, everything is loading as it has been for years. At this point the only item shown on my "extensions" page is "Java Quick Starter".
Additional Info.
My problem started when I did a search for "Dictionary". When I clicked on the very first line under "Search Results", which was "Online Dictionary" I was directed to download "Alot Dictionary" which resulted in a new toolbar on my screen which I did not want. Items 1. thru 4. above outline how I got rid of this "problem site" with my Windows XP

I kept seeing the "connection reset while page was loading" with Firefox v 3.xx
I was using AVG free. After disabling LINK SCANNER in AVG problem resolved.
