Yes, done that mate and reset firefox to default settings all to no avail. Even removed it with revo and that did nothing either

that is some type of proxy if you using proxy check your configuration

Hi hobferret
Uninstall the mozila and delete the folders about "mozilla" in docummnets and settings (for win xp) and use this tool to clean the registry, however check the keys that will be deleted by mvregclean, some times it deletes keys that we need. I hope this can help you

maybe its just an url in your shortcut plus you can always try uninstall an install

Thanks Wilson, after searching thru the keys to find the "bad" ones, it now seems to be working
