Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; iebar)
Build Identifier: The connection was refused when attempting to contact start.mozilla.org

Having upgraded from v1.0 to 1.0.6 today, I now get the message 'The 
connection was refused when attempting to contact start.mozilla.org'. I have 
checked that Mozilla is permitted by Windows XP firewall and am running no 
other firewalls.

I have had to resort to going back to Internet Explorer - which DOES work !!!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on Mozilla Firefox Icon
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
the following message appears:
'The connection was refused when attempting to contact start.mozilla.org'.

Expected Results:  
Enabled the Mozilla browser to allow access to the internet.
That still sounds like a firewall problem. Try turning it off. Also for such
issues please visit irc.mozilla.org #firefox for some support.
