Firefox the connection has timed out + websites work in all browsers expect Firefox
I've been searching Google from hours trying to figure out why Firefox will not work for me. I can't get any website to load in Firefox. Every time I try to search a website, I sit for minutes waiting for the website to load only to be given a message that says "The connection has timed out". I've tried resetting Firefox, uninstall/reinstall, disabling my Windows Firewall, changing settings in about:config.... but nothing works. I have no clue why my Firefox isn't working, but I've tried everything I know how to do. Please help.

i was not able to fix the problem using the suggestions from this article
Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar.
Under Advanced, Select Network. Look for Configure How Firefox Connects and press the Settings button. Check the settings.
Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
- Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
- Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
