Firefox will not load. Neither will IE now. Cannot get a toolbar. I think I may go back to system restore and wait out a fix. -----Original Message----- From: Joy Gulden Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2014 2:53 PM To: gen-newbie@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [GN] Firefox problems connecting I am using Chrome right now, but I was using Firefox. Try this -- open Firefox - at the toolbar at the top of the screen, Tools Options Network Connection Settings Mine is set to use system proxy settings. If yours is not, you can try the auto detect proxy settings for this network If you know the configurations, you can try the manual proxy configuration. Let us know and if it does not work and you do not know the configuration used for IE, I can tell you what I use and MAYBE where to find yours. Joy ------------------------------ I can't help you with Firefox - not technically savvy enough. But, I just read an article yesterday and again today that stated Microsoft is not going to fix IE. I do use Firefox and am perfectly happy with it. Remember I might be wrong about IE being fixed!
