Hi ChouguleV,

Do you have any third-party software installed, maybe an anti-virus? Please trying disabling those and give it anther go.

Hi ddtudoran,

Thanks for your reply. I had Kasper-sky anti-virus installed on my machine, but it has been there for quite a long time, Firefox was working fine few days before. It stopped working for few sites all of a sudden. I have uninstalled Kaspersky now, and switched back to windows firewall. But still Google, LinkedIn doesn't open on Firefox.

@cor-el: These two settings have default values as you have mentioned.
