I cannot connect to any site with Firefox and always get an untitled page saying firefox could not connect to the server. I can connect using internet explorer but not firefox any ideas?
10 days ago couldn't get on to the internet. Thought this was my serivce provider talktalk and eventually ended up removing all my internet connections and reloading the whole lot with the origional disc only to find I still could not connect. Tried connecting with internet explorer and can access every site. Problem is clearly with Firefox but despite experimenting disabling all and then individual add ons and plug ins can still not get firefox to connect to any site with getting a problem loading page screen and the message "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at" which is displayed for every web site I have tried.

In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings". See "Firefox connection settings" in Server Not Found - Troubleshoot connection problems
You can find the connection setting here: Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy
Another possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that,. Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

It was the firewall that did it. Couldn't findany evidence of it preventing or having any rules for access to mozilla but restored the default settings and I am back on.
Thanks
I have the same problem. Neither of these solutions worked for me. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Firefox works fine from my laptop connected to the same wireless network.
We havr the same problem. Two other laptops in the house connectt with firefox just fine. "unable to connect" is the message. Windows Vista not sure which version, but we did reinstall firefox and it still doesn't connect

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
I'm still having trouble with this after trying the suggestions above...please help! I love my firefox.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
