Title: Firefox
Post by: VulcanRaven336 on September 21, 2006, 12:16:29 AM

Firefox is acting weird. I've been using it for at least 3 or 4 months and it hasn't done this before, what it does is that once I try to open it it says:

Firefox Can't establish a connection to my homepage

I tried to unninstal it, then re-install it but it still won't work. Dunno, what do you guys think it is? It won't let me go to any webpage. :firefox:

He can't go to ANY webpage he said, so its not just the home page.

I use AOL dialup... In order for me to use firefox, I have to sign on AOL and have the AOL browser up. If you're using a dial up connection, you may have to do something simular.

If its not that, check to see if windows or your firewall is blocking or not allowing firefox. There is an option in the 'add or remove programs' in the control pannel that sets windows access defults and such. I don't know if your running a firewall or not, or what kind you have, so I don't know where the option for that would be.

It's prolly your connection, happens to me alot. While you're online, your internet might turn off but appear to be on and firefox will go queer first. *shrugs* I usually click go or try again. Also, did you check to see if it's not on work offline?

Get Crazy Browser in the meanwhile. It´s way better than using Explorer till you got your precious Firefox again. *hugs Crazy Browser*
