You need to make sure you are starting in safe-mode correctly: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode

Have you tried putting the application on another location? Some firewalls get in their minds that an application has changed, that you disagreed with that and is refusing now to let it make connections to other ports and addresses. You could also open your firewall, delete any rule for Firefox but also delete all its fingerprinting identification marks for Firefox. I personally have such a firewall (old Tiny Personal Firewall) that gets corrupted once in a half year and this treatment always helps.
