Firefox does not load any sites the first time, including Firefox itself, other browsers do.

In the last few days I have experienced a problem logging on to nearly every site the first time. I get the message that the connection was reset....we have 3 identical computers in our home and I am the only one experiencing this problem. I can immediately try again and log on, but it is annoying to get that message with all sites, including Firefox itself, I have tried to clean out my cache and my cookies, but the problem persists.
Also, firefox is locking up my computer frequently. As it is as I attempt to send this message. I will copy and past this into another message as soon as I restart my computer.

Hi cor-el,
Yes the problem has reappeared, so I tried bypassing the cache for my Windows computer as you suggested: Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button, or "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows) I then clicked on my bookmark (http://mdotnetpublic.state.mi.us/drive/ ) and I still see a blank screen and a spinning wheel. This seems to go on indefinitely. But like before I posted the question, when I click the reload button it forces the page to load right away.
[running Firefox 32]
I appreciate your quick responses, and look forward to more suggestions. I'll also search the support pages for information about my problem.
Thank you.

  • Certain website does not load page on the first time in Firefox 31

    Hello,
    When I start Firefox 31 after loading Windows or again after clearing internet cache, this particular bookmark of mine " http://mdotnetpublic.state.mi.us/drive/ " won't load the web page. All you see is a blank screen and a spinning wheel.
    However, if I click on the reload button the page then loads correctly.
    I don't have this problem with any of my other bookmarks.
    Does anyone know what the problem might be? Thanks for your help.

  • Firefox does not load any websites now, after working well earlier today.

    Firefox is not working now - it does not load any websites. Message on screen says:- "8e6 Mobile Client - internet browsing is not possible at this time. Error:80001001".
    What I was doing before the problem:-
    I had spent time re-organising My Documents.
    One folder in My Docuamnts called "High Windows" contained the file "2101HighWin.msi", which I attempted to open.
    What I have done since the Firefox problem:-
    I have tried to uninstall 8e6 Mobile Client, but it won't let me.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox.
    I have used InternetExplorer8 to search thru the Mozilla troubleshooting pages.
    Please can you help?
    Cheers,
    Bruce

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.
    See:
    * [[Server not found]]

  • Firefox does not load 1/2 the time and in order to open it I have to reboot my computer. Please help, I do not want to use Bing or IE.

    When I click on Firefox to open the browser window nearly 1/2 of the time it never opens. It shows that it is trying to open and then it does not. No matter how many times I click on it it will not open unless I reboot my computer.

  • Firefox does not load any webpages. Only shows "done" in corner. IE (64bit) works fine

    The firefox program loads fine. However it only shows "untitled" in the tab and "done" in the bottom corner. It does not show any error notifications. When I click a bookmark, or enter a URL into the location bar it makes not attempt to contact the server. In fact it appears to do nothing at all.
    I appreciate any help you can provide.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"

    Thank you. I have moved your post from the Creative Cloud to the Muse forum. They will be able to help you here.
    The following information will help the Muse team:
    Share one specific url that is not loading correctly. Do not ask folks to just "explore the site".
    Please post a screenshot illustrating the error. The error may not happen in a different version of Firefox (or on a different OS).
    Give the version number of Firefox you are using.

  • TS1398 My iphone 4s does not show any of the Wi-Fi networks.  All other devices are working fine on Wi-Fi.  help?

    Worked fine last night, trying to update to IOS6 and Wi-Fi decides not to work anymore, I mean, there are no list of networks to even try to connect to a Wi-Fi.  Tried the reset network, power on power off, the whole nine.  Any other ideas???

    Give this a whirl and see if this helps.
    Forget the network on the device and turn wifi off.
    Turn bluetooth off. (Not sure why, but seemed to help with others)
    Turn on airplane mode and then off again.
    Reconnect to you network and open up a browser to confirm connection.

  • Firefox will not load my swf file. Runs perfectly in all other browsers. Help!

    I've developed a website (www.fit-mamas.com.au) whereby you click on the black & white image and get a pop-up window running a video. The video is an .flv file running via a .swf file loaded from an html file. The .swf file was produced using Flash CS3. The video loads perfectly in all browsers except for Firefox which just displays a blank screen with video controls. I've been researching online for hours, as this problem is a common one, but nobody else's solutions are working for me. Any help would be appreciated. My code is as follows:

    The video works for me on Linux. The server seems to be slow and playing stops all the time.

    I just downloaded a DVD image from my university's MSDN Academic Alliance program, named "Microsoft
    Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 Debug/Checked Build 64-bit (English)", which I wanted to use to install over an existing 32-bit version. I thought the install screen was giving this weird unskippable error described in the OP before I even entered
    a key because the 32-bit key I had used on the HDD was somehow interpreted to be used in an upgrade, but no. Even after I wiped the hard drive, this error persisted.

  • Firefox does not load the first time I click on it -- a script appears which ischrome://webvideodownloader/content/utils.js:131 -- when I stop this script running I can then load firefox -- how can I keep this script from running

    I can still load it with the script running or attempting to run in the background but it makes firefox tremendously slow. After I click on stop running the script then everything seems to be ok.
    how do I get the script not to run in the first place.

    In Firefox the use of the term chrome refers to the user interface and other elements that are not part of the web pages.
    See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Chrome
    Your problems seems to be caused by the GreaseMonkey extension.<br />
