Mozilla Suite : Issues : Connect

Mozilla will not connect to any site

If you are using a firewall - check the settings so that Mozilla is allowed to connect.

Note: Even a deactivated firewall (software) can block traffic.

If you are using a proxy - check the settings. If things are working with Internet Explorer or any other browsers - transfer the settings from there to Mozilla.

When Mozilla accesses a secure site or mail server, it needs to access the Personal Security Manager (PSM), but some firewalls mistake the internal communication as an attempt to set up a local server. If you are prompted about this, you may safely grant Mozilla access.
