New version of Firefox will otherwise not internet due to 'proxy server '?
I tried two times to update my firefox to the most recent (as of 07/18/10). When I did, I was unable to get anywhere on the internet. The message said the proxy of my server settings would not allow it and to make changes. I use a personal computer with Windows 2000. It connects directly to the DSL, there is no server in my house. I'm not too computer savvy but tried to use info tools but that just assume that I already know about the servers proxy, servers, etc.. I could remove the new version and load an old one stored on my computer and have no problem getting on the net. What is the solution that I can do? Should what steps I take. I'm not going to hire a guy to do what should be a simple task.
Tools > Options > advanced > network > settings, set your connection on 'No proxy', if you are not using a proxy.
«Firefox 3.6.6 added a new preference that sign of connection settings, proxy use "system settings", and the default value is the point.» This new pref does not affect most users, because they probably do not have a proxy set in place in their operating system.

install the new version of firefox will save my old settings such as bookmarks and custom parameters
If I install the new version of firefox, it will save my custom settings and bookmarks?
It seems that you already have the latest version, Firefox 6. You can look to the right of your question or you can look at help > about Firefox.
To answer your question, update usually retains your personal data (bookmarks, passwords recorded, etc.). However, it is always a good idea to keep a backup of your personal data in case of hard drive failure or accidental formatting, preferable on another hard drive, a USB pin/USB/thumb/key or a CD/DVD, so that you don't miss them. I use an add-on named FEBE for me to do on a regular basis.

my new version of firefox will not save my user name and passwords - why?
My version before I updated to 4 saved all my usernames and passwords. Since the update to version 4, it records only a few. I checked that I'm not running in privacy mode and have checked remember passwords and have a master password in the Security section. I have a laptop with Windows Vista.
Some sites like PayPal, Yahoo, Windows Live, and bank sites use autocomplete = "off" to prevent Firefox to save and fill in the name and the password.
If a site uses autocomplete = "off" then look at this article for a bookmarklet to remove the attribute autocomplete and Firefox will provide store name and password.
If a Web site creates the login via JavaScript form then the password manager does not offer to store both passwords (Bug 518516).
