I recently had a virus (one that was malicious advertising that was a phony anti-virus software) and restored my computer but now I can't upload photos on any websites. I'm thinking the virus switched on some weird proxy setting, as it was routing everything through a proxy server. How can I fix this? My firefox is up to date.
