Firefox Issues

[digitalwolf]

Firefox has been a dream for the past 2.5 years on my PC. The 2.0.6 update came out and firefox prompted me to install it. I did.

Ever since I get page cannot be displayed. I have tried removing it and re-installing it but no joy

IE7 is working fine btw.

I've decicded to dig this post out of the archive so to speak.


I never managed to get firefox up and running, removed it and every little trace of it, files, folders etc and still page cannot be displayed. Not sure what try a new profile means?

IE7 updated yesterday and now that also is saying page cannot be displayed.

I have no working browser now

Any idea's whats up?

I've added a new profile on firefox and it still won't load up any pages

 

[digitalwolf]

Yes disabled them etc.

After installing the 2.0.0.6 firefox update it no longer worked. Now a hotfix for IE7 has been installed that also does not work.

Weird eh??

 

[digitalwolf]

MSN etc work fine though

Any way I can test the port to see if it's open or not?

Ok, I can get into my router stats page (192.168.1.254) on IE7 but no web pages will load.

Same with Firefox.

I've disabled the firewall on the router and the windows one is turned off. Turned kaspersky off and still won't load pages up.

All the other computers in the house work fine.

I'll try booting up in safe mode with networking enabled and see what happens.

 

[digitalwolf]

IE7 works fine in safe mode.

Hmmm.

 

[digitalwolf]

Yes both are working fine in safe mode.

I've removed kaspersky now and it's still not loading pages up in normal mode.

 

[digitalwolf]

It turned out to be kaspersky even though I had removed it, there was still a process running!!

I've tried to do a full system scan in adaware and it keeps hanging on this path C:\Windows\$Ntuninstall\KB905915$

Any idea's why?


Thanks.
