On Firefox I get The requested URL could not be retrieved On Internet explorer it works What is wrong?
ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.com.au/
The following error was encountered:
* Unable to forward this request at this time.
This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:
* The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and * All configured parent caches are currently unreachable.

It could be a firewall or other security software blocking the access for Firefox - if you use the default Windows Firewall in XP, you can find help in article How to let Firefox use the internet on your Windows computer.
If you use a 3rd party security program, you could look for help with configuration in our KB articles (use yellow Search box on right side of this page - search on provider, like Norton, AVG, F-Secure), or post the name here and we'll help you find relevant link(s).
If the problem persists, this article might also help you solve it: Websites don't load - troubleshoot and fix error messages (comprehensive article with solutions and links to other articles).
When you get online, I would recommend updating Firefox. The latest version is Firefox 3.6.3. You can get it from getfirefox.com and install it over your current version. Also see article Update Firefox to the latest release for info.
