I was using Firefox one day when the following message was shown: "The proxy server is refusing connections

Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.

*   Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
*   Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
         working."

I checked with my network administrator and he said that everthing was fine. I started using Internet Explorer and everything is working. I don't think this is a problem with my server.

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 settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

I've had the same problem but i fixed it! Here is how i did it!

First go to Firefox > Options > Advanced > Network

There is a "Settings" button for "Configure how firefox connects to the internet.

Click on it And chose "Auto- detect proxy settings for this network"

And there you have it!

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
