Description

[Frank Sobol]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.2

The latest update 1.5.0.2 cannot find ATT.NET website where I get my email. All prior versions of Firefox worked with ATT.Worldnet. I have to uninstall 1.5.0.2 and reinstall the prior version to get back to ATT.NET.

In addition, the latest version ignores my setting NOT to automatically install updates.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just click on Firefox icon to start dsl connection
2.Immediate screen report that Firefox cannot find ATT.NET
3.



Expected Results:  
Prior to the latest update, I was linked to ATT.NET (myatt.net) and got the ATT home screen and then could get to my email.

No problem to load http://www.att.net/

Neither of the issues you have reported are regarding the installer. The first issue would be for the application and the second is for software update. Firefox -> General for triage

Reporter, do you still see this problem with Firefox 2.0? If not, can you please close this bug as WORKSFORME. Thanks!
