I just got a wireless card installed onto my computer for my wireless DSL modem, and today when I got on, Mozilla Firefox has not worked. When trying to get onto a website, it keeps saying that the "website could not be found." It is obviously not a problem with my internet because every other internet-bound program works, just Mozilla doesn't.

Any suggestions would be great.

are u sure that its allowed to access the internet?.. it could be blocked from accessing the internet somewhere... check the security

edit: firewall!... omg that took me quite a while to remember... yeah u should check the firewall settings

When I check my Firewall settings it doesn't say anything about Mozilla Firefox or anything close to it. Anybody else have an idea to fix it?

I tried closing and re-opening, and even shutting down my computer. No good.

Hey try this:

Go to Start, Control Panel, and then Windows Firewall. (Assuming you have SP2). Go to Exeptions on the top, and see if firefox is there. If its not, go to 'Add a Program'. See if that helps. Good luck.

Thanks, but that did not work. I just downloaded Mozilla and I will just use that unless someone else has any ideas.
