The past 4 days, I have not been able to use Firefox for the internet, and have been having to use IE, which is HORRIBLE!!!.

I am getting a proxy server error on Firefox, but have not changed any settings at all, and have been using it for 6 months now.

Proxy Settings hmm.. assuming you're running 2.0.0.4

In Firefox.

Tools > Options > Advanced > Network Tab > Configure how firefox connects to the internet > Hit Settings

Make sure "Direct Connection To The Internet" is selected.

Other than that, have you installed any new extensions lately? Are you running a firewall? What OS, XP or 2000?

Running XP and have not done any changes to the system at all. It just started doing this on Sunday night.

Very strange, I've never gotten any problems with FF, except when I try to create my own extensions. :D

If you're running a firewall make sure it hasn't blocked it for 'suspicious activity'

My fav plugin is Foxytunes. Love not having to have a media player open and still be able to see what is playing.
