Firefox 3.6.6 doesn't load websites

Installed upgrading 3.6.6 this morning. Ran very well. Shortly after (and I don't know if this is related) dialog of Norton Internet Security says system needs to be restarted due to a security problem. Reboot PC (Windows XP Pro all service packs), started to Firefox, got the blank page. Tried other sites, the same result. IE8 went very well. I uninstalled Firefox, restarted the PC, installed Firefox 3.5.1 now works fine.

The problem was caused by Norton quarantined 3 files. When I have restored these files, FF works again.

  • Firefox crashes when loading websites with videos or watch videos

    I've only known short Firefox slow or crashes when I visit websites with embedded videos. The problem mainly occurs when I try to watch the video, but even just to load the web page. Any video site linked to, that's the problem with Youtube, Vimeo and others. What could be wrong?

    Hi again! It seems that the problem resolved itself... Probably by the new update of Firefox or any update of the oher plugin I made last week. I can watch Youtube videos without problems.

    So, for now... I guess we can call this resolved. But I don't know for sure what caused the problem and what has been resolved.

  • Firefox and Safari are not completely load some sites, but Chrome is. Why?

    Tonight, I noticed that some Web sites have been does not completely load on firefox. I tried to use Safari to see if it was a firefox problem, but he had the same problem. However, when I loaded the sites on Google Chrome it worked fine.

    I tried to reset firefox and clear cache, but it did not help so I uninstalled and reinstalled but it still doesn't load these web pages correctly. This just shows that constantly trying to load and pieces of the site are missing or broken. I'm on a Mac using Mountain Lion. I've updated the Java plug in, but it does not seem to have done anything to improve the situation.

    Alternatively, you can try to disable IPv6.

    You can try to reset (power off / on) of the router.

  • All of a sudden, firefox 6 is holding still to load.

    Just started today. Have you tried to restart the computer a couple of times and it did not help. Have installed nothing again.

    Exactly what happens when you try to start Firefox? It open but simply cannot connect to Web sites? That could be caused by your security software firewall, especially if update you Firefox. See solve connection problems to websites after Firefox update.

    If this isn't the problem, try some troubleshoot and diagnose problems in Firefox. See if you can start Firefox Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode by pressing the SHIFT key as you double-click the Firefox icon... then select 'Continue in Safe Mode' when the Firefox Safe Mode window appears. If Firefox starts in Mode safe, follow the steps of Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to see if you can find the source of the problem.

  • Whenever I start FireFox 3.6.17 it now loads the Plugin Check page. How can I stop doing that?

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    I tried to download firefox.

    User Agent

    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; INTERNET EXPLORER 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; AntivirXP08; GTB6.3; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; MS - RTC LM 8)

    When you click on the download link on GetFirefox.com, you should be asked if you want to run or save the file. If this situation occurs when you try to run the download, try instead to record and put the file on your desktop or in a similar place, where you are certain that you can find.

    When the download is complete, try double-clicking on the downloaded file in the normal Windows Explorer (browse your way to the file from the desktop). This should start the installation.

    If, in the Explorer window, you notice that the file seems to be missing the Firefox icon orange/blue, right click the file and select Properties. The image should look like the attached picture (except that mine is in Danish, but that is irrelevant) if saved correctly - if it don't look like this, would you please describe the content or attach a screenshot of the box. Especially what it says under "File Type" - it must be 'program '. If this isn't the case, will have to focus on what could be the problem here.

    A bit off-topic, your Internet Explorer seems to be quite a bit outdated (IE 6, where the current version is IE 8), so I highly recommend that you try to run Windows Update to get your system up to date. Is it as a society (such as a thin client Terminal Server computer) system, this is not possible, and most likely, your system administrator will have to help you.

  • Why Firefox doesn't load the JCPenney update web page?

    I just spent an hour on the phone with JCPenney, and then we are cut off. The gal is telling me where things are running on their new website, and I'm telling him that no such thing appears on my page.

    After that, we got cut, I opened Google Chrome just for the heck of it and used my LastPass to open a session for JCPenney. LO & this IS! All these things the gal was trying to tell me about the page - are actually on the page.

    Now why Google Chrome will load the new site of JCPenney as Firefox continues to load the old site?

    Thanks a bunch! It worked.

  • Firefox doesn't load the URLS of sites window, but will charge by search engine

    Firefox will not load any site that I type in the URL window. It loads any location of the tile to start or Google search results page. But never directly.

    The problem started a week ago.

    The problem persists in safe mode. I have a few extensions and plug-ins (No Add ons) but I have not installed new in the last year.

    I uninstalled it and installed a clean place. I did a refresh. Hardware accelerator is disabled. The only thing I have not tried is to create a new profile.

    I'm running Win 7 Ultimate 64 (although Mozilla is x 86).

    My security system is provided by Zone Alarm, but it has been the case for at least five years and never had a problem before.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    The most likely cause is a bug in Firefox that has not yet been set.
    You need to rename a particular profile data file. Your browsing history will be lost, but the browser working again. It is hoped that there will be a better fix in Firefox itself soon.

    Current fix suggested. (Bug 1180419 partner)
    Rename the places.sqlite file as explained in this recently revised article.

  • Why Firefox has randomly decided not to load any website?

    On the eve of my problem was triggered, everything worked perfectly well. Today, as I turned it on my computer loaded up Firefox, I was greeted with "unable to connect, Firefox cannot connect to www.whatever.com. No Web site at all, no matter a secure site (https) and normal Web page or same Mozilla.org would be responsible. Yet another browser can. I have torn the support page seeking a solution and I really tried all suggested (clear all cookies, history, etc., remove and add new Firefox in the list of reliable in the firewall Windows, uninstall programs, deleting the Firefox in Program Files folder, then reinstall). Norton has been disabled even when Firefox was working, so he couldn't possibly be interfering. No update for the browser, my computer or anything else has produced recently, or if I downloaded all the malicious files.

    I could not possibly express how frustrating it is and any help would be appreciated very much.

    Windows 8
    Firefox 27.0.1

    I understood everything. It turns out that Norton was blocking all programs on the web on my computer as it has been disabled. I knew that Firefox would not let me down! I will continue to use the best browser in the world!

  • I reloaded Firefox this morning and now the HOTMAIL site doesn't load.

    After "reloading" Firefox this morning when I try to access my Hotmail account, I just get a blank screen instead of the normal Hotmail Log In screen.

    Hi, please follow the instructions under the heading "clear history for this site" of Web sites say cookies are blocked - pledge, making sure that you remove all references to Hotmail.

    If this does not work, try Mode without failure of Firefox to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.
