Is there some problem with accessing the browser?

Yesterday, on trying to get on the web, I got the message that "Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that can't be found"

Anyone else have problems? Or is it confined to my PC??

Appreciate replies.

Cheers

are you on a home pc, or are you on a work pc, that would be behind a firewall?

If you are at home, click Tools->options->advanced->Network->settings, and select no proxy.

If you are at work, it probably needs to be set to the same as IE is.
