Firefox is the only program on my computer which struggles with connecting to the internet for some reason, other browsers and programs work fine. Everything times out, even the update checker in settings. It opens local files without issue. It started 7+ days ago, i have tried doing everything on the "firefox doesn't load internet pages in, other browsers do" but it didn't change anything.

It is possible that your firewall or other security software blocks or restricts Firefox after detecting that Firefox updated. Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and other security software and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full access for all Firefox processes.
