Proxy refusing connections. Mutliple proxies.
The proxy I was using said refusing connections. So I switched proxies. Same thing, tried about 6 proxies and they all were working fine but refusing connections. They also caused problems in Chrome. I have no idea what to do?
Try to select the "No Proxy" setting instead of the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting.

Why is the system proxy refusing connection?
I'm currently using Firefox 3.6. I usually connect to the internet through the system proxy, but for the past two weeks I have not been able to. The proxy works for every other computer connected to this network, just not mine. I can still connect if i change it to no proxy, auto-detect, or manual, but these give me connection problems especially when I'm trying to attach a file, run ymsg, or upload documents to anything.
The header of the Java Console for Both PC's say the same thing.
which is
Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.3.1_02
Using JRE version 1.3.1_02 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
User home directory = C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator
Proxy Configuration: no proxy
And the output for them are seen in my previous post.
This is the System properties for the javaplug in of the non-working PC.
java.vm.vendor = Sun Microsystems Inc.
java.vm.version = 1.3.1_02-b02
javaplugin.classloader.cache.enabled = true
javaplugin.console = false
javaplugin.debug.mode = false
javaplugin.enabled = true
javaplugin.exception = false
javaplugin.jit.enabled = true
javaplugin.jre.path = C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.1_02
javaplugin.jre.type = JRE
javaplugin.jre.version = 1.3.1
javaplugin.maxHeapSize = 96m
javaplugin.nodotversion = 131_02
javaplugin.proxy.config.type = direct
javaplugin.proxy.forallprotocols = false
javaplugin.proxy.usebrowsersettings = true
javaplugin.version = 1.3.1_02
and this is the java plugin system properties from the working
javaplugin.maxHeapSize = 96m
javaplugin.nodotversion = 131_02
javaplugin.proxy.config.type = direct
javaplugin.version = 1.3.1_02
So my question is Why would system properties be different for these 2 machines ? I am traking this as a possible explanation for why the Same application does not work on 1 pc but works on another pc - though they are supposed to have the same plugin .
Thanks in advance;

I'm connected to a customer's network and I have to use a proxy.
I correctly authenticate myself to the proxy and I try to access https://mail.google.com.
I receive a message that the proxy refuses the connection.
I noticed that this happens with all the https sites.
If I connect with my mobile internet key without proxy, I'm able to connect: the combination of proxy and https is failing.
Other computers on the same network with different browsers can connect to https through the proxy.I'm working with the Firefox development team on this one. As far as I can tell, they seem to think that there are 2-3 different problems with the same/very similar symptoms, all involving proxies. They think they've fixed them all for RC1.
Right now, it looks like we just want people to test an early build.
You can get that here:
[http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2011-03-03-12-mozilla-central/firefox-4.0b13pre.en-US.win32.installer.exe]
Install that somewhere (not in your current install directory), quit all open Firefox instances and try it. Let me know if it works. -
I was using Firefox earlier in the day with no problem. About half an hour ago I tried to get on the Internet using Firefox (as always). When I did, I was greeted with a little dialog box showing that something was downloading. That's happened before.
This time, though, I was greeted by an error page that said Firefox was configured to use a proxy server that's refusing connections.
I'm not on a network. I have a desktop computer that connedts to a wireless modem that I share only with my wife. I didn't change my settings on either. Neither did my wife.
My "Connection Settings" box still says "use system proxy settings." There are no entries in the manual settings boxes.
I want to emphasize that I changed *nothing.*
I need to know, please, how I can set my computer to get back onto the Internet or, failing that, how I can go back to the previous version of Firefox.
Thank you very much.

I currently have version 3.0.10 and have gotten two prompts to upgrade my version of firefox and each time I do install the new version and then try to start up Firefox, I get a page instead that says proxy server is refusing connections and the only way to browse is to re-install the old version. I also have to re-install the old version at least 3 times before I can use Personas.
In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".<br />

Not related to your question, but...
It is important that you keep IE updated. The information included with your question, indicates that you are using IE7; you should update to IE8 for your own protection. IE9 will not be made available for Windows XP.

Any version of Firefox above 3.5.4 I try to install will not let me get to the internet. Each Firefox gets upgraded it keeps giving me the error message that "Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections." Then I need to re-install 3.5.4 to get to the internet. This is driving me nuts! How do I fix this?
You're welcome

Firefox 4 was working fine. Then one day, when I started up Firefox, it says "Proxy is refusing connections." I solved this by selecting "Auto-Detect Proxy" from Advanced network settings, but my changes are not saved and upon every start-up I must select it again! (I even completely removed my webroot antivirus protection, as it as hindering many proxy related programs, but this seems to not be the source of the problem)

Can't access the web on lap. It's networked form main computer. The problem started just after I downloaded/updated to Firefox 3.6.6. That may be a coincidence. I get "The proxy server is refusing connections". Restarts don't help. My main computer is fine. I didn't update it.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== just after an update to 3.6.6Firefox 3.6.6 made a change in prefs to use system proxy settings.
Check your proxy / network setting in Windows and change it to No Proxy, if you don't use a proxy.

Proxy Problem The proxy server is refusing connections
I run Windows XP. I did have a Cybot backdoor Activity attack intercepted by Norton Internet Security and I used the Norton NPE to remove it from the computer. I do not know if this caused the proxy problem or not.
There is no proxy problem connecting to the internet through Internet Explorer just through Mozilla Firefox.
When Mozilla Firefox tries to connect to the internet I get the following message:
Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
working.
In Mozilla I click Tools, options, advanced, network, settings. Under settings Proxy is set on manual, it says that there is no proxy for the figures typed in.
So I click auto detect proxy and I then can connect to internet through Mozilla, however when I log out of the internet, the same proxy server issue is recreated.
What should the Proxy setting be?You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection

I have called COMCAST, my internet service provider and they said there is nothing they can do for me.
I would appreciate an answer to this problemThe default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't always work properly on Windows XP and in such a case it is better to select "No proxy".

please try if it's the same when you launch firefox in safemode once (then it might be an issue with an extension hiding this setting) or else try a reset of firefox.
