hello, this might be due to the disabling of certain insecure authentication protocols in firefox 30: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/30.0/releasenotes/#whatsnew

you can try to enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named network.negotiate-auth.allow-insecure-ntlm-v1. double-click it and change its value to true.
