I keep getting the following error "server not found.....firefox can't find the server at http." when I try to log on to one certain website.

I was able to access this website prior to 2 weeks ago. I can access this website on other computers without issues, and I can also access all other websites on this computer.
The following is what is listed in the navigation bar when I get the error message.
http://iphantom.com/wisd/restricted.html?fn=Default&FP=l&ip=10.201.5157&ibip=66.206.97.9&ldu=l&re=0&bu=wps.prenhall.com
I noticed it says wisd/restricted, but I can log on to this website using my wisd computer without issue, and I get the same error message at my home/other locations. So I know that it is not restricted. I have used all the other suggestions "no proxy", shut down firewalls, but nothing has worked.
Any help with this matter will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Cody

Why the hell do I keep getting this friggin' error msg"Server not found Firefox can't find the server at .................." ?

Done all suggestions in online help (windows firewall settings, updates, ect.) No problem with IE8 with same webpages.

I'm looking for a solution for the "Server Not Found message I keep getting repeatedly, and this thread does not provide a solution.
However, I had to sign in to say that the "Reset Firefox" feature should never be presented as a first solution to any problem. It's a last resort, not first resort. Doing so is lazy thinking and reckless, especially when dealing with users who may be newbies or inexperienced, or who may not read instructions so carefully and understand the ramifications of wiping their settings and customizations.
There are plenty of articles and Knowledge Base entries that touch upon this user's problem, so why wasn't he directed to those, or at least the invariable "Open in safe Mode", before suggesting such a drastic "solution"?

Site gives message Server not found; ;Firefox can't find the server at (site name). Address is correct, network is connected. Don't have problems with most sites. Others can access this particular site easily.

Can't open any of the National Parks Service Civil War Soldiers and Sailors Systems sites. Get the message Server not found although others are able to open it easily. Network connection is good and addresses are good.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.civilwar.nps.gov and all National Parks Service Civil War Soldiers and Sailors System

Such behavior can be an indication that you are infected. 
In such a case you can use another computer to download the program and save the file to an USB stick. 
Be sure to download the latest databases.
You can try an online anti-virus scanner.

Try resetting your proxy server. Go to Tools, Options, Advanced, Settings and select one. I must do this every time I restart Firefox -- but at least after that, I'm okay until the next restart.

Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
Do you have any idea how to get rid of this annoying pop-up? I searched for that file name on Google, but nothing came up.
This only started happening after the Scareware program, Open Cloud Security, infected my computer a few days ago. My wife got into my registry to remove Open Cloud, but now I am left with this annoying Firefox problem. I have to close the annoying window TWICE to get back to Drudge.
This happens 6 times per hour.

Hello,
Looking at your issue I am wondering if your media is corrupt.
What edition of SQL Server you are trying to install? Did you download that media?
If you downloaded it, perhaps you should try to download it again.
Are you able to install that SQL Server 2008 on another machine without any problem?
Hope this helps.

Why now do I get the error message that states Firefox can't find the server at ......

Majority of times when I search for a particular web site I get the error message that states that "Firefox cannot find the server at ... " (site I am looking for)

I still have the problem although I uninstalled Mozilla (clearing the cache didn't work and neither did Word diagnostics), so have ended up thinking it could be Norton (the manual update worked x1) or Windows. Today I found an answer: disable the preview pane in Windows Explorer - there's a history of problems with this view.

When I open Firefox and try to open a new tab I get an error window which says "Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/9Úº%01˜%1Cm:ÙËÅÈµÖ¯AÐóqÖ¬7F±éS¿W5." Is this a virus?

I get multiple windows opening with this message. Sometimes as many as 8 or more. I first tried clearing my cache then I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but the issue persists.
I am using Trend Micro anti virus software with their latest updates and have run a complete scan. The program tells me I do not have a virus but I suspect I do. Can anyone give me any input on this?
Thanks.

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

When I start Firefox, I get an error message instead of my home page: Server not found Firefox ca

The error message is: Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at co108w.col108.mail.live.com.
If I then hit "Home" it goes to the home page. Changing the home page hasn't helped. Resetting Firefox hasn't helped. This just started today. Restarting the computer didn't help.
I'm using Firefox 18.0.2 and Windows 7.
Thanks.

Check for malware
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Firefox can't find the server at playfi.sh

every time that I try to click on a link for Playfish free gifts for apps that I play through Facebook or through an email to a link being offered by Playfish, I get the following message:
Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at playfi.sh.
Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
I have cleaned cache, checked firewall, allowed in pop-up blocker, everything and nothing works... I can play the apps with no problem, it is only when trying to collect the items offered as gifts from Playfish.

You have malware.

Server not found (firefox plugin)

Anyone tell me what I am doing wrong . . When I try and
install Macromedia Flash Player i get that the installation has
failed . . when I try and manually install I get -
Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at fpdownload.macromedia.com.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's

connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or

that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

I tried all the suggestions that where given in the post and
I still continue to get those errors.maybe macromedia flash just
really doesnt want to cater to linux users or mac users.

Firefox can't find the file at (a location is specified) when either "Navigate previous" (and next) buttons are pressed in an HTML5 skin (but OK in IE/Chrome).

I create HTML5 help projects from a package called MadCap Flare. It uses what they call an HTML5 'skin' that sets the style/layout of the page and also includes 'Navigate previous' and 'Navigate next' buttons. When viewing the help and pressing these navigate buttons in IE8 or Chrome 32 there is no problem, but in Firefox 27 I get the following: (typical error for pressing a button on any page)
"File not found"
"Firefox can't find the file at /C:/SVN/FlareEnglishOnLineHelp/Output/HTML5_Help_Modeller_Reference/4attrib/idh_jointinterface_element_meshes.htm?TocPath=Modeller Reference Manual|Chapter 5 : Model Attributes|Meshing|_____2."
" Check the file name for capitalisation or other typing errors."
" Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted."
- Because the files and buttons work in other browsers I'm wondering just what is going on here with Firefox>>>>

I should correct that last entry and state that the | charactacters are generated automatically in the Toc-Path for each 'book' name in the online help, and are not something manually created, whereas the : characters have come from the TOC book topic names (which were manually entered names and are what we would ideally require). But, because 'previous' and 'next' topics within nested TOC books without colon (:) characters CAN be browsed successfully when just | characters are present in the Toc-Path, the limitation would appear to be solely due to the : characters.

Active Directory error message "the following object is not from a domain listed in the Select location forestB\username

Hello Community
    "forestA" is my forest it is a Windows 2008 Server Enterprise Edition
domain controller using Active Directory and the UI.
    In my forest ("forestA") trust relationship I created a "One-Way, Out-going"
forest trust with Forest-Wide authentication so that a different forest user(s) or
group(s) with a different admin in a forest named “forestB” can access the resources in my “forestA”
    But also forestB needs to create a "One-way, Incoming" forest trust so that
I can either add the user(s) or group(s) from “forestB” into to a "Global Security - Group"
in my "forestA" or I can
add user(s) as "domain user(s)" from “forestB” into my "forestA".
    The problem is that when I right click the global group in my forestA and then
properties, when I click "Members" and then the "Add" button when I type
"forestB\username" I get an error message from Active Directory stating:
    "the following object is not from a domain listed in the Select location
dialog box, and is therefore not valid: forestB\username".
    Am I doing something wrong when creating the one-way trust in my
“forestA” or is the one-way trust being created wrong by the other domain admin in the other “forestB”?
    Or could I possibly need to select "Change Domain" or "Change Domain Controller"
before adding the users or Groups to my forestA from forestB?
    That is why I am asking
how do you add an Active Directory user from one forest into another forest?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

Hello Denis Cooper
    That is the end result.
    What I was trying to do was that I was trying to
bring in the user(s) and group(s) from “forestB” into
my “forestA” Global group.
    Later on I was going to add the user(s) or Global groups(s) that I brought into my dc in my forestA
into the domain local groups on my member servers in my forestA.
    So since the error message is:
"the following object is not from a domain listed in the Select location dialog box, and is therefore not valid: forestB\username".
Does your response
mean only Global group(s) from forestB not domain user(s) from forestB have
to been added to domain local groups in forestA?
Or is it also possible to add Global group(s) from “forestB” to Global group(s) in my “forestA” and if so
how without getting the above error message?
Thank you
    Shabeaut

I frequently get the "Firefox can't find the server" error message.

I frequently get the "Firefox can't find the server" error message. Refreshing the page normally causes the page to load, although sometimes it takes more than one try.
I have checked my connection settings. IPv6 and DNS prefetching are disabled, as recommended by this article: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can?s=Firefox+can%27t+find+the+server+at&r=1&as=s

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 and the updater process.
