I have been using Firefox for months without any problems. All of a sudden, when I try to open my Outlook email I get error message that Firefox can not open that site and to try later. If I clear the history, I then can log back into Outlook and get the mail. When I use IE Outlook opens right up. After opening Outlook in Firefox and then closing it out, I once again have to clear the history to open it again. Nothing has changed on computer, no new programs added and no programs deleted (other than Firefox deleted now so I can mail without all the hassle)
