Firefox is opened, but unable to open any website. The message says, "The proxy server is refusing connections" & "Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections". I installed the version 8.0.1 again. But there was the same message, again!

Have you tried on a different browser/computer connected to the same network. If an error of the same type comes up on Chrome or IE, contact your ISP

Check the connection settings.

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy" if the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't work.

See "Firefox connection settings":

Even though the Firefox didn't work the IE was opened. So. I disabled all the add-on of the Firefox and restarted! Then it worked and the problem solved! Thanks!
