I get this message "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server. How can I fix it?
I can't seem to access the websites that I usually like facebook, my banking online, itunes and even my netflix using Firefox. I get this message "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server." What this means and how can I fix. It's something that I can fix on my own or I have to bring my laptop to the computer repair people?
Hi AngieBismarck,
1. What is your default browser?
2 are you able to access Web sites using Internet Explorer?
You can check if you can access Web sites using IE.
If you encounter this problem only with Mozilla Firefox, you can check the link Firefox support at the address following:
You can also get in touch with Mozilla to get help on this issue:
Hope this information is useful.

I often receive an email that contains more than 10 images (attachments) but when I get this message, I can't as a pop up comes up and tells me that I must remove some of the attachments that would destroy a part of the message. What should I do to correct this?
The images may be too large to send massively as they must be encoded to send by e-mail, and this coding can add as much as 40% of the size of the message. You can resize to fit the web by reducing their dots per inch to 96 (screen resolution) and then saving them as a compressed jpeg files. IrfanView (www.irfanview.com - free) will do this for you.
You can also try Message | To send as an attachment and see if it goes through.

Hello
EricLaw IEInternals - a peek at Internet Explorer from inside. -Understanding DEP/NX
http://blogs.msdn.com/ieinternals/archive/2009/10/10/understanding-data-execution-prevention-crashes-in-IE8.aspxThe problem might actually be an add-on or another program to the origin of the problem and you should check that
1st.What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you have NEVER on it
machines, including those that you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).Start - all programs - Accessores - system tools - IE with no Addons - does this work better?
IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK
IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security - reset all Zones by default level - apply / OK
not better?
Close IE and try again IE or IE with no Addons
IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
"(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
are bad, but some can cause your question. (Toolbars are BHO)
http://securityxploded.com/bhoremover.phpStartup programs
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/79612-startup-programs-enable-disable.htmlAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and it would be
unusual with Prevx market except for an occasional cookie of low level (not a big deal), update it, then
run as a scanner.I would add prevx so.
Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

Establish a connection with the server
Hello
Read the docs and came across two ways to establish a connection with the server of a customer.
' (1) easy login:-sqlplus hr@\"//mymachine.mydomain:port/MYDB\.
(2) name of network service:-sqlplus hr@MYDB.
While establishing a connection to a server, we use sql * net services (if not jdbc or odbc), which should be present at the server end and the customer. So what is the fundamental difference between the mechanisms of above two connections?
Thank you and best regards,
Saidi.See http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/EZCONNECT.
The difference is described in the first line.

I can't get updates for Adobe or programs AVG 2011 - connection to the server has failed
I have windows xp. and my AVG does not update my Anti virus and Anti spyware is obsolete. AVG Forum suggests that my windows installer should be activated, but I tried the adjustment option here, but it did not work. Same problem with Adobe, unable to update - the connection to the server failed. I could really do with some help.
Thank you very much

Hello Kimhib,
Try this solution that worked for others.
Go to Windows Explorer
Follow the path in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application AVG\Update\download
Delete the 2 files .ctf there.
Then go to AVG and try to connect to the server. If all goes well, you can now save the download to your computer and install the new files.The files are: avginfoavi.ctf and avginfowin.ctf
If you still need help, you can post in the Forums of AVG: http://forums.avg.com/us-en/avg-free-forum?sec=theme&act=show&id=1
Thank you

This seems to be a fairly common problem, or variations of it. When I reinstall (repair) VMware Server (2.0.1), it corrects the problem. As soon as I reboot, I get the error once again and can no longer connect via the web access.
I don't have McAfee SecurityCenter to Comcast, and I'm trying to understand if there is a firewall issue. What makes no sense at all, it is this issue has occurred only recently, and I used VM for several months with several guests and almost no problems (through multiple reboots).
What are the most common reason for this problem?
Thank you.
I had the same problem, started the 'VMware VSS Writer' Service and set it to automatic.
Works now.

I can establish an internet connection via internet explore using a router at home, but whenever I try to connect using firefox, it said that it is impossible to connect.
One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox without you informing on this subject, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container.
See Server not found - the problems of connection and Configure the firewall so that Firefox can access the Internet and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls
