I think this is more a 3rd Party (Nvidia Active Armor) Problem with this
Firewall like a Firefox Problem. I have used different Firewalls (Kerio
Firewall, Zonealarm) without Problems.

Have you contacted the Vendor of this Firewall for Support ?

I will mark this invalid because its a 3rd party Issue (this activearmor
Firewall) and no Problem from Mozilla.

Make sure that in this firewall the Internetaccess is allowed for Firefox.

-> Resolved invalid

just an idea. Maybe the Users at mozillazine http://forums.mozillazine.org/
could help you to configure your Firewall and to resolve you problem.

We're now tracking such bugs. This doesn't mean it's something we can fix, merely something we hope to be able to point vendors to so they can investigate. This is an automated message.
