This usually happens when your firewall detects that the executable has changed and blocks access.

Thanks Xircal for that. Actually I had accidently ticked off "work off line" last item under 'file'. Silly me. Whew!

Hmmm... you should have got a message on screen that Firefox couldn't access the Internet in Offline Mode.

Anyway, glad to hear you're up and running now.
