Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 300454

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[maloyrick]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Media Center PC 3.1)
Build Identifier: 

After downloading Firefox version 1.0.6, I lost all internet connectivity 
using Firefox. The bookmarks were correctly copied, but neither my homepage 
nor any of the bookmarks can be launched. I didn't record the full site 
address, but it ended with "...isu.edu.tw"

I have no problem connecting using Explorer, but I like Firefox better. How 
can I get a working version of Firefox re-loaded?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch the browser and get the popup message: "(any site address).com could 
not be found. Please check the name and try again."
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
connected to the internet

Is your firewall correctly configured to allow Firefox 1.0.6? What version of
Firefox were you using previously?
